Greg Rueb of Rueb & Motta San Francisco personal injury attorneys offers insight: Using a doctor-lawyer/medical advocate to handle your personal injury case will dramatically increase your chances of receiving quality medical care and full and fair compensation for your claim. A doctor-lawyer with a background in physical rehabilitation is in the best position to help diagnose your injuries, to help make sure you are receiving the best medical care available, to develop a complete future care plan including a full understanding of potential chronic pain issues, and to negotiate a settlement with the insurance company. Physical rehabilitation doctors specialize in helping patients recover from traumatic injuries. They understand the latest in gold standard medical techniques and are in the best position to diagnose current conditions and to provide a prognosis for future care needs. Insurance companies value injury claims based upon formal medical diagnosis and the types and duration of appropriate medical care. Insurance companies also value wage loss claims based upon formal medical declaration of disability. A medical advocate can provide informal second opinions, work with your treating physicians to ensure appropriate medical care, to help establish medical disability and to develop a complete understanding of your past and future pain and suffering, and work with life care planners to establish all of a your future care needs. A doctor-lawyer will have a higher level of credibility when dealing with insurance adjusters in negotiating appropriate compensation for your case. If a treating physician does not fully diagnose your injuries, you will not receive the quality medical care necessary to give you the best chance at making a full recovery. In some cases, even if the treating physician properly diagnoses your injuries, the treating physician may not be aggressive enough to fight to ensure that you receive the highest level of care. If you are improperly diagnose or do not receive all necessary medical care, the insurance companies will not give you full credit for your injuries and you will not receive fair and just compensation. A medical advocate gives you the best of all worlds and fights to increase your chances of healing and receiving the money you deserve.
