Efficient Analysis of Specialist Reports

The Challenge

Lawyers are regularly faced with the challenge of analyzing reports outside their field of expertise—whether in medical law, technical fields, or other specialized disciplines. Understanding complex technical terminology and methodologies consumes significant time and leads to difficulties. This makes interpreting these reports more arduous and significantly impairs the efficiency of legal work.

The Use Case

At Büchner Rechtsanwälte, specialist lawyer in insurance and medical law Stefan Zeitler encountered this problem. He needed to review a court report based on the guidelines for the medical assessment of people with chronic pain. The task involved analyzing the conformity of the report with current medical assessment guidelines. This required a meticulous examination of the methodological approach, including anamnesis, findings, diagnosis, and assessment of professional performance.
