Our experts can apply Bolam and Bolith test to prepare liability reports and provide an opinion as to whether practice has fallen below the standard expected of a reasonably competent practitioner and of the hospital/organisation responsible for the care delivery. Our services are available to the legal profession on behalf of claimants, defendants or as joint experts. We provide unbiased and professional reports which are compliant with Part 35 of the Civil Procedure Rules.
