What Medical Evidence Do You Need for a Personal Injury Case?

Every accident is different, but more to the point, everybody responds to injuries in a different way. This is a way of saying that, even with the same injury as someone else, your body might not heal the same way. This is going to come into play in your personal injury case because you have to show the extent of your damages. As our video points out, you’re going to need to present evidence in the form of:
  • Medical records – Medical records are probably the most important pieces of evidence because they show your injuries and the treatment you’ve received. They also detail your diagnosis, treatment plans, and follow-up care. These records help prove that your injuries are related to the accident and show how serious they are.
  • Visit notes – Visit notes are written by doctors after each appointment. They include what the doctor observed about your condition, any changes, and treatment recommendations. These notes help demonstrate how your injury has progressed over time and how it affects your daily life.
  • Consultations – If you had surgery or saw specialists, their reports are important. They explain the extent of your injuries, what procedures were done, and how long recovery might take. This information helps show how your injuries impact your life.
  • Medical devices – If you need medical devices like crutches, braces, or wheelchairs, any related paperwork can support your case. This evidence shows that your injuries have made it necessary for you to use these devices, impacting your daily activities.
  • Bills – Medical bills are essential because they list all the costs related to your injuries. They show how much you’ve spent on hospital visits, surgeries, medications, and ongoing treatments. These bills help calculate how much compensation you should receive for your injuries.
Obviously, the more hurt you are, the more treatment you’re going to need. This means more records and more documentation to put together. That’s another area where we take pride in our approach: we have a full team of experienced professionals who call providers, gather your records, put them together, make calculations, and get them ready for our lawyers to take to the insurance company and present your case. But with a  personal injury case, your medical expenses are just one area of your damages.
