“The best decision we made for our daughter’s legal defense was hiring Medexpertwitness.com. On the advice of our attorney, I contacted Jane Leavy and she took the time to really listen to all the facts of the case and match my daughter with a neurologist who could best analyze her situation and be available for court. Jane Leavy always returned calls promptly and followed through on everything she said she would do. She was extremely supportive and her experience as both an attorney and nurse was invaluable for understanding the medical aspects of the case .She is caring, compassionate and conscientious. Even after her services were completed, she would continue to respond to calls and took the time to follow up on the case. I couldn’t be more appreciative of Jane Leavy and would highly recommend Medexpertwitness.com.”

Moving forward with a medical malpractice case is often a difficult endeavor in any state not withstanding states that hav have laws that make it virtually impossible. Much of that difficulty can lie in just selling your case to a seasoned attorney. Presenting them with the report of an expert witness who has reviewed your records and can support your case can be pivotal in this regard. Unfortunately, expert witnesses only work with attorneys or insurance companies.

Jane Leavy is a nurse turned attorney; two occupations that make her a perfect fit for what she does at Med Expert Witness. Mrs. Leavy connects both lawyers and lay people with the experts that can help litigate a malpractice claim from start to finish. Her knowledge of both medicine and the workings of a typical medical malpractice case make her an ideal advocate for your position.

I live in the most difficult state to bring a medical malpractice case in. Jane retained and handled 3 expert witnesses for me that reviewed my records and supported my case. With their expert evaluations I was able to successfully come to a settlement agreement with a medical malpractice insurance company without an attorney as a pro-se litigant.

I am however the exception to the rule and unless you are willing to spend every moment of your free time learning the law as I did; I would strongly recommend retaining counsel.

Jane was always helpful and knowledgeable, and she led me to very good doctors to review my cases.

“The folks at Med Expert Witness.com have proven invaluable at locating the right expert for our cases. This has been especially so in some of our malpractice matters where the physicians practicing in some subspecialties tend to be a tight club where nobody wants to render an adverse opinion or testify. That is true even here in the Metro, NY area and having a resource like Med Expert Witness.com that can draw on willing and qualified experts from other regions
has saved the day for us several times. The friendly personal followup also avoids stress when trial is around the corner and you need to get it done. I highly recommend Med Expert Witness.com.”

“In 2008 my husband’s teeth were damaged during surgery in Leduc, Alberta, Canada. Initially, he was merely going to get his teeth fixed and send a complaint to the College of Physicians and Surgeons. However, his problems persisted so he decided to launch a lawsuit. As I have worked in the legal community for over 35 years we decided to handle the case ourselves. To meet the legal tests we needed an expert, and after months of searching we met with negative results. As a last resort I contacted Jane Leavy of MedExpertwitness.com – She did an exceptional job. We provided her the history and from there she immediately began a search to find a doctor with the highest qualifications, experience and integrity. Throughout my dealings with her she was extremely efficient and always remained cognisant of the costs. Those following in our footsteps of needing an expert simply won’t find anyone better – I highly recommend Jane and her company.”
