In this presentation, two of the top motor vehicle trial lawyers in America teach doctors what no other personal injury seminar for doctors has considered before. Containing highlights from Trial Guides’ intensive Personal Injury Conference for Doctors, this DVD set gives a comprehensive understanding of the insurance and legal issues involved with motor vehicle cases.
Aaron DeShaw is a nationally prominent doctor and trial lawyer who is best known for his pioneering work in revealing how the Colossus program evaluates claims. In this set, he takes doctors far beyond Colossus to discuss issues that can impact patients’ claims and result in underpayments to their clinics.
Peter Anderson is a highly respected Colorado trial lawyer with an extensive history of six- and seven-figure outcomes in common spinal injury claims that have resulted in chronic pain. He is a former claims adjustor who brings you insights into how insurers view your cases. He teaches doctors about the way that insurance claims work and about their role in a case, including depositions and trial testimony.
DeShaw and Anderson address topics including the following:
- Minor impact cases
- Ways to get your claims out of an insurer’s minor impact unit
- The special investigations unit
- Medical bill review software
- The problems caused by direct referral program auto body shops
- Your role in the insurance and legal processes of your patient’s claim
- Overcoming the most common defense attacks
- And much more
If you accept personal injury cases, this DVD set will improve your practice and the outcomes of your patients’ cases.
