Review
"This is a real medico-legal book. It is about avoiding litigation.
A dozen front rank medical experts expound good practice within their speciality, and Bertie Leigh, a leading solicitor with immense experience in these cases gives an expert legal commentary.
Good practice is the key to avoiding litigation. Good practice is here expounded with experience and authority and lucidity and clarity and simplicity."
--Alec Samuels, (Medico-Legal Journal, 1999)

Product Description
Actions concerning medical negligence have increased dramatically over the last decade. Those actions concerning the head, spine and nervous system form a significant part of these cases and damages are usually substantial. Problems generally arise not because of negligence on the part of neurologists or neurosurgeons, but because non-specialist staff fail to identify the correct diagnosis.
This new book concentrates on the areas that tend to lead to litigation, bringing together clinical specialists with experience as expert witnesses. The legal aspect is highlighted by a leading barrister and solicitor in the field of medical negligence.
