Practical guidance for expert witnesses and injury law firms, on medical evidence, court-ready reporting, radiology and keeping clinical data compliant under UK law.
Yes. An expert witness can use AI for the reading: extracting facts, building a chronology and finding entries across a medico-legal bundle. The opinion must remain the expert's own, every AI-produced fact must be verified against its source page, and the Part 35 duty to the court is untouched by the tooling.

The courts are drawing attention to how AI is used in expert and witness evidence: the Court of Appeal in R v FGD, the CJC's review and the BSB's guidance all land on the same idea, that AI use should be transparent to a proportionate degree. For an expert witness that means being able to say what a tool did, what the expert checked, and what stayed the expert's own judgement.

With a record number of claims now settled out of court, early case resolution requires clear evidence and expert opinion. Bundles can run into thousands of pages, but Alldoq Verify streamlines the workflow.

The bundle is almost never complete. A referral with no clinic letter, a test with no result, three weeks of an admission with no notes: gaps like these are routine, and how an expert handles them decides whether the opinion holds. Name the gap and reason around it openly and the report is stronger for it. Work around it in silence and it becomes the thread the other side pulls.

The joint statement is where two experts agree what they agree on and pin down exactly where they part. Walk into the discussion with the records in order and your reasoning already on the page, and the meeting sharpens the case. Walk in unprepared and it is where a sound opinion quietly comes apart.

AI medical record review uses language models to read a medico-legal bundle, GP records, hospital notes, imaging and correspondence, and return an indexed chronology, typed fact tables and summaries with a source page attached to every fact. Used well, it turns days of reading into hours. Used badly, it produces confident answers no one can check. The line between the two is the source page.

Under Part 35 of the Civil Procedure Rules, an expert's overriding duty is to the court, not to the party paying them. That duty shapes the independence of the opinion, the mandatory statements in the report, and the obligation to flag where the evidence is incomplete or your view has a range.

A medical chronology turns thousands of pages of records into a single ordered account of what happened and when. Build it well, with every entry tied to its source page, and it becomes the backbone of a defensible report. Build it badly and it is the first thing the other side takes apart.

Exporting frames from a separate workstation into Word loses fidelity and breaks the audit trail. A browser viewer built for medico-legal work can do better.

A medical chronology is a dated, sourced timeline of every clinical event in a case. Built well, it turns thousands of disordered pages into one reliable spine the whole claim runs along. The test is simple: every entry carries the document and page it came from, so anyone can check it.

The brief asks for an opinion. The relationship is built on the things the brief does not spell out. Here is what keeps a firm coming back.
