What aspects of the seminar did you find most helpful?

  • Appreciated the detail that was presented and the applicability to both plaintiff and defense. Especially helpful for paralegals. On time!
  • Systematic review of material. Organized structure.
  • The information regarding the organization and contents of the medical records – e.g. abbreviation on different types of records. Understanding medical terms.
  • Explaining the differences in diagnostic tests performed. List of medical abbreviations.
  • The visuals and background information to tests, organs, charts, etc.
  • Research and investigative tips. Abbreviations and terms – diagnostic tests. Litigation tips. Diagnostic imaging was very informative.
  • Very comprehensive look at aspects of medical records analysis. As an experienced PI paralegal – you answered those nagging questions seen frequently that you never seem to find time to ask about. I feel it was “the final touch” I needed to feel confident in my analysis.
  • Excellent information, very well organized, good graphics (except for jokey critters) – I don’t know any other source for all this information..
  • Medical terminology, diagnostic imaging.
  • Humor and information content.
  • Terminology; the questions asked to class and rules or regulations that answer questions; helpful hints based on his experience; websites.

  • (I would recommend this seminar) to more entry level paralegals/associates.
  • Excellent speaker.
  • Love the video clips and images for cross reference; also valued the examples given after each segment, or point; helpful to see diagrams/drawings of anatomy.
