The 10 Biggest Mistakes Experts Make During Depositions:"The discovery depositions of expert witnesses are increasingly playing an important role in the litigation process. Under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26 (4) A: “A party may depose any person who has been identified as an expert whose opinions may be presented at trial.” With this in mind, we turn to the ten biggest mistakes experts make during their depositions. #1 – Waiving The Reading of Signing Of The Deposition Transcript At the start of most depositions, counsel will agree on stipulations. Use of the most common stipulation is that the deponent waives the right to read and sign the deposition transcript. The expert who is interested in accuracy should not agree to this waiver lightly. Experts who agree to waive the reading and signing are agreeing to a document’s accuracy without even seeing the document."

http://seak.com/10_biggest_mistakes_experts_make.html10 Biggest Mistakes Physicians Make in Writing Their IME Reports:"The Independent Medical Evaluation (IME) reports that physicians prepare are playing an increasingly important role in workers' compensation cases, personal injury litigation, and long-term disability claims. Each year physicians prepare hundreds of thousands of IME reports which are read and utilized by judges, hearing officers, and plaintiff and defense attorneys to decide and settle claims. Physicians are frequently called upon at depositions, hearings, or trials to support, justify, and defend each and every word of their IME reports. With this in mind, we turn to the 10 biggest mistakes physicians make in writing their IME reports."

http://seak.com/10biggestmistakesphysician.htmlAdvice on Answering Questions at Depositions:"Avoid Absolute Words You are well advised to avoid, where possible, absolute words such as "always" and "never." Absolute words are frequently an invitation to, and fertile grounds for, cross-examination by counsel. Counsel will attempt to damage your credibility by first getting you to make an absolute statement. She will then use counterexamples in an effort to show the falsity of your statement.

http://seak.com/April_2011_Deposition_Skills.htmlConnecting with the Jury:"In jury trials, the jury ultimately decides the case. Their job is to determine the facts of the case. A crucial part of this is determining the credibility of the witnesses. This includes expert witnesses. As such, it is of the highest importance that experts are able to communicate with the jury in a credible and persuasive way. Everything else is secondary. To connect with the jury, an expert needs to understand what juries want and know the best ways to communicate with them."

http://www.seak.com/april_2011_Jury_Trial_Skills_Workshop.htmlOpinions and Bases for Opinions, Seak.com:"The main reason expert testimony is presented is to offer an expert opinion. Accordingly, experts can anticipate being closely cross-examined on their opinions. They should also expect to be closely questioned on the bases of these opinions because an expert opinion is only as strong as the facts and reasoning upon which it is based. Questions in these areas are best blunted by carefully and honestly forming an opinion that is based on reliable methodology, a thorough investigation, and solid facts."

After searching the marketplace in response to customer inquiries, it became obvious that there were no catalogs of this type serving the nursing profession. To be sure, there were several catalogs offering nurse's uniforms and a smattering of professional items. But there weren't any catalogs at the time offering a range of gifts, clothing, professional items, name badges, shoes and scrubs for nurses. It took two years of hard work to gather samples and put a together a catalog of the most unique and high-quality items for nurses."

American Board of Independent Medical Examiners (ABIME):"The foundation of mission of the American Board of Independent Medical Examiners (ABIME) is the belief that certification of independent medical examiners benefits the public good. This belief is based on the tenet that credentialed physicians have demonstrated that they possess the knowledge, skills, experience, and abilities required for the attainment of their certification as a Certified Independent Medical Examiners, (CIME)TM. Credentials, therefore, are reliable indicators of the professional’s capacity to perform independent medical and impairment evaluations according to the profession’s performance standards. Certification enables the public to make informed decisions regarding the selection and use of independent medical examiners."

The "Independent" Medical Examination, Evan K. Aidman, Esq.:"The insurance company has the right in every personal injury case to have you examined by a doctor it chooses. This examination represents the third stage of the discovery process. The insurance lawyers like to refer to this as an "independent medical exam" or an IME. The IME is anything but independent and no insurance lawyer will claim otherwise outside the courtroom, that is, not with a straight face. The doctors paid by the insurance company strain to offer opinions that help the insurance company. Also, the IME doctor’s medical skills may be secondary in importance to his skills at testifying in a compelling and convincing manner."

Unjust Treatment: 'Independent' Medical Examinations & Workers Compensation in New York State, York Committee for Occupational Safety and Health:"Each year approximately 500,000 occupational illnesses and injuries are reported to the New York State Workers' Compensation Board. Of these, several thousand claims for occupational disease are challenged by workers' compensation insurance carriers for reasons that frequently defy close medical analysis and too often defy common sense. With millions of dollars in profit at stake, insurance carriers: challenge valid occupational disease claims, which results in workers often failing to pursue their cases or eventually settling for less than they are entitled to;"

Independent Medical Examinations, Dr. Samuel M. Rock:"Independent Medical Examinations concentrate on the patient's progress in psychotherapy (whether in the No-Fault arena or the Workmen's Compensation area). I was asked to do an Independent Medical Examination for a law firm. (Usually, IME companies ask for causality connections- which exist between the accident and the mental problems of the claimants. In addition, they usually require the provider to evaluate Maximum Medical Improvement and to determine whether there is a psychological disability.) In this legal case, I was asked to determine if a psychological condition continued to exist within the claimant."

Independent Medical Examinations, By Attorney James A. Pitts, Schoone, Leuck, Kelley, Pitts & Knurr, S.C.:"Whenever any person puts his or her mental or physical condition at issue in any case in which compensation is sought, the insurance company or other responsible party defending the case has a right to have a physician of its own choice examine the claimant. The logic of this general rule cannot be questioned. The manner in which so-called "independent medical examinations" are carried out is often fraught with controversy. If the claimant is not properly prepared for what lies ahead, the claim can be lost or seriously damaged. The procedural rules governing independent medical examinations vary among federal and state jurisdictions for tort cases, as well as for cases involving statutory claims such as workers compensation. Several general requirements are universal."

Independent Medical Examinations (IME), State of Wyoming, Department of Employment:"(a) Medical examinations may be requested by either the Division or your employer. The examination is a medical evaluation of your condition. If an assessment of your permanent physical impairment is required, you will receive an impairment rating. However, the doctor providing this examination/assessment will not be taking over your medical care. You should continue to see your primary health care provider."
