Great great video. Important and needed for plaintiffs who have actually been tragically injured by the defendant.

Great vid. Thanks for helping the Pro Se folks out. You guys are very clever or kind or both :)

Thanks for this. Forwarding to my daughter who has an IME today.

why are they allowed to do this? why are they not held accountable? or have their license revoked if they caught lying?

I was injured as passenger, and these defense lawyers are so rude and treat me like a criminal, Am I allowed to record all audio on my phone ? When I attend this stupid appointment

Good advice

Thank you sir

Mr. Griffith, Do you use nurses as observers during these exams & receive a report from the observation?

When you cross that DME doctor at trial, do you spend any time on disputing the injuries, or just go into how much money they make doing DME work? I generally go for bias. One of my colleagues actually got a DME to admit on the stand that he hated all plaintiff lawyers and they were nothing but scum to him.

Hey Jeff, So it just depends. Depending on the facts, John may dispute the injuries in the DME report, but in certain cases with well-known DME Doctors in the area, he may focus on the bias which would then poke holes in the DME's report.

Do you have to fill out their paperwork?

Yes, it is helpful to be cooperative. Your lawyer or someone on his or her staff should help you with the paperwork.

Can I tell the doctor I know she’s not there to help me

@@TheOneinthewoods I had my ime with a surgeon that came up from Illinois, met me at an office a half hour from my home. He asked questions as to how it happened, the date it happened and some questions as to how i was getting along also did a short examination ,the whole thing took less than ten min. He sent a report after about 10 days, and he totally agreed with my dr. I had 1 surgery and still doing therapy. My dr told me that I will likely require another surgery. Good luck to you!

Be mindful that there is a flip side. I know of plantiff attorneys who systematically require their clients to use only their doctors, bring in "out of state" psychiatrist to do evaluations...Both sides should be charged to be honest & ethical.

Some do, but it is a bush league concept. I will steer clients away from one particular large medical practice that does a large volume of defense exams.
