After practicing trial law for 20 years, Attorney Steven Babitsky recognized that attorneys would obtain better results in personal injury cases if they could view and understand what went on during medical examinations. As the vast majority of personal injury cases involve orthopedic, neurological, soft tissue, psychiatric or chiropractic examinations or issues of symptom magnification, he produced six videos to assist attorneys in their personal injury practice. These videos are an insider's view of the examination process.

Attorneys are now able, at their convenience, to be inside the examination room to see what the chiropractor is actually doing during these examinations. What better way to prepare for direct and cross examination than to view the tapes and watch as the doctors explain the objective and subjective findings they are looking for, the tests they are performing, and the clinical significance of the findings.

Legal nurse consultants will find this tape an invaluable way to prepare to accompany a patient to an independent medical examination. Learn the typical chiropractic examination in order to be able to spot the incomplete one and prepare a more thorough report after the observation of the examination. You will learn now to use the correct chiropractic terms when preparing your report following the examination. Develop skill in interpreting chiropractic terms when reading reports of chiropractors. 

Chiropractors will learn more about what is expected of a chiropractic independent medical examination.
