Medical reports decide the direction of many criminal and civil cases, yet they are written in terms most families and many advocates find hard to test. We explain what a report says, what it does not say, and where it may be inconsistent with the rest of the evidence.
What we do
- Review of post-mortem reports in suicide, homicide and dowry death cases
- Examination of MLC and injury reports, including allegations of fabricated injury
- Assessment of time since death and nature of injuries from records
- Opinion support in medical negligence matters
- Question preparation for cross-examination of doctors
When clients come to us
- A death has been recorded as suicide and the family disagrees
- An injury report does not match what actually happened
- An accident claim turns on the nature and cause of injuries
- An advocate is preparing to cross-examine a medical witness
How it works
What you receive
A written consultation note or opinion, depending on the need, with references to the relevant medical findings.
Questions about medico-legal consultation
Do you conduct post-mortems?
No. Post-mortems are conducted by government doctors. We review the reports and records that result from them.
Which documents should I send?
The post-mortem report, inquest papers, MLC, photographs, FIR and any hospital records you have. Send what you have and we will ask for anything missing.
Is my case kept confidential?
Yes. Your identity, the details you share and our findings are kept private and are released only to you or to whomever you direct in writing.
