CONTROL THE EXPOSURE

Every untested assumption becomes part of the reserve.

  • What's supported — which future costs and limitations the record actually carries

  • What's speculative — which line items rest on assumption rather than evidence

  • What's compounding — where an overstated care plan or work limitation is inflating the economic analysis downstream

IMS matches the work to the decision: a data check, a verbal clinical consult, or a rebuttal on the record.

HOW TO CHOOSE
A chart conversion is an exposure tool. A clinical consult is a mediation tool. A rebuttal is a trial tool.


Use the tool that fits the decision in front of you, not the biggest one on the menu.

MATCH THE STAGE

Not every claim needs a rebuttal.

Three distinct engagements: assess exposure, sharpen negotiation, and commission testimony only when the claim requires it.

Three engagements, not three steps. Each stands on its own. Only Expert Opinion is built for the record.


Narrow the damages issues before discovery widens them.
• Focus discovery — which gaps are worth pursuing, and which aren't
• Clarify authority — what the claim is actually worth before the request goes up
• Preserve rebuttal budget — spend it on the issues that move the number

Focus discovery. Clarify authority. Preserve rebuttal budget.

THE ANATOMY OF THE CLAIM

One demand. Three places it breaks.

A demand is a chain. The care plan sets the medical assumption, the vocational assessment sets the work assumption, and the economic model multiplies both. IMS reviews all three as one system — because a flaw in the first two moves the number in the third.

INVENTORY · What the plaintiff claims

TEST · What IMS examines

  • Life care plan. Medical support and reasonableness — do the records support the recommended care, frequency, and duration?
  • Vocational assessment. Capacity and alternatives — do the restrictions align with the evidence, the skills, and the labor market?
  • Economic model. Methodology and sensitivity — which assumptions materially change the resulting figure?

DECIDE · What it supports

  • Life care plan. Reserve orientation, grounded in what the plan actually contains.
  • Vocational assessment. Mediation strategy, and what to concede.
  • Economic model. A focused rebuttal aimed at the assumptions that move the number.

Break the chain, not just a link.

WHAT YOU GET
Decide the claim against a number you tested.
Case Intelligence
Set the reserve on evidence
Cases settle near the reserve, and the reserve gets set off the demand. A line-item read tells you what the plan actually contains before the number hardens into the range you negotiate inside.
Clinical Consulting
Decide whether to designate
Designating a rebuttal expert is a bet — a weak rebuttal hands plaintiff a witness to cross. Find out verbally whether the opposing plan has real vulnerabilities before you commit one to the record.
Expert Opinion
Rebut what matters. Concede what doesn't.
Court-ready opinions aimed at the assumptions that actually move the number. A narrower rebuttal is a more credible one.
Any one. Any order.
Blue textured angles.

Send us the demand. We'll recommend the right next step.
