What should I expect from my attorney concerning the medical facts and circumstances of my "serious injury"?
Your attorney should monitor and understand the medical diagnosis and treatment of your injury. He or she should gather the relevant records and medical information in order to fully understand the nature and extent of your injuries. This may require medical research or consultation with outside medical experts. It may also require conferences with you to discuss ongoing and future treatment. While it is not the role of your attorney to chart or determine your medical care, there is an obvious need to be intimately aware of the care and its impact upon your life. You will also gain from the interaction with your attorney on medical matters because you will be more fully informed on the content of your records and your medical options.
