Meet The Speakers

In May, 50 legal professionals and expert witnesses will join two industry leading speakers to discuss Cauda Equina Syndrome in the context of medico-legal reports and instructions. The speakers will focus on the legal and clinical perspective of CES, utilising case law and case studies to explore the legal process. We will hear how to optimise instructions to efficiently engage an expert witness for impactful results, with insights into how expert witnesses manage their cases and build reports based on the information available.

“I thought the event was excellent and a very good environment to have conversations with the experts. Sufficiently informal with a keenness on the part of all to engage.” – Solicitor at Moore Barlow
