Clinical Negligence Advisory Screening: An Overview

NHS-Female-doctor-expert-witness

Early Case Screening to Reduce Costs & Risks.

Clinical negligence cases require significant upfront investment, yet many fail due to weak medical evidence. Solicitors often spend months gathering records and commissioning reports, only to find a case lacks merit, wasting fees, billable hours, and increasing indemnity risks.

INNEG’s Advisory Screening service eliminates this uncertainty. Our expert-led pre-screening opinions and short-form reports provide early, evidence-backed insights into case strengths and weaknesses before solicitors commit to full medico-legal reports.

We offer two levels of advisory screening to suit your needs:

Pre-Screening Opinion

Provided by a specialist consultant, this opinion is based on a detailed letter of approach with review of very limited records returned to you within 1 week. You will receive a short opinion detailing the consultants findings.

Ideal for assisting you with your internal risk assessment process and for obtaining ATE cover.


Short-form Screening Report

Provided by a specialist consultant, this report is a thorough review of the claimant’s pertinent records, assessing whether the allegations can be substantiated. 

This screening report provides clear responses to the questions asked and is non-court compliant.

Ideal for building a robust letter of claim or response.
