Expert Witness Analysis for PI Attorneys
Defense IME doctors are paid to minimize your client's injuries. ProvaLens cross-references every claim in their report against your client's actual medical records — and shows you exactly where the expert's conclusions diverge from documented fact.
No credit card required. HIPAA compliant. BAA included.
IME reports are written to undermine your case. Finding the flaws requires comparing every claim against thousands of pages of records — a process that takes days and still misses things.

Average time for ProvaLens to identify all cross-document contradictions in a case file
Cherry-pick records: Cite only the records that support their opinion, ignoring contradicting entries from treating physicians.
Dispute causation: Claim injuries existed before the accident based on selective reading of pre-accident records.
Minimize severity: Describe symptoms as subjective or inconsistent with objective findings — even when imaging says otherwise.
Overstate recovery: Conclude maximum medical improvement based on a single examination, ignoring ongoing treatment notes.
Records the expert ignored: Treating physician notes, physical therapy records, and follow-up imaging that contradict the IME's conclusions.
Causation contradictions: Records showing the injury was not present before the accident date cited in the claim.
Severity discrepancies: Specific document-and-page citations where objective findings directly conflict with the expert's subjective characterization.
Treatment gap vs. MMI: Active treatment entries that directly contradict a maximum medical improvement conclusion.

EXAMPLE — IME CONTRADICTION DETECTED (Causation)
Defense IME Report — Dr. Harrison (p. 7)
"Review of pre-accident records indicates the claimant had a pre-existing lumbar condition documented as early as 2019. The reported L4-L5 disc herniation is consistent with the natural progression of this pre-existing condition and is not causally related to the subject accident."
Tampa General Hospital MRI — 3 weeks post-accident (p. 3)
"Comparison with prior MRI dated 08/14/2022: New finding of L4-L5 disc herniation with right paracentral protrusion, not present on prior study. Clinical correlation with recent trauma is recommended."
The "pre-existing condition" the defense expert cited was not present on the MRI from 14 months before the accident. ProvaLens found this in 47 seconds.

When the defense sends an IME report, upload it immediately alongside your client's complete medical file. ProvaLens identifies every place the expert's conclusions are contradicted by objective findings — giving you the rebuttal before discovery closes.
Enter the deposition knowing every contradiction the records support. ProvaLens generates a prioritized list of inconsistencies between the expert's report and the source documents — so your cross-examination is built on documented evidence, not intuition.
Challenging the reliability of expert methodology requires specific citations. ProvaLens identifies where the expert's factual foundation is contradicted by the records they claimed to review — providing the documented basis for a reliability challenge.
A demand letter that includes specific page-number citations showing where the defense expert contradicted treating physician records is far more persuasive than a general rebuttal. ProvaLens-generated contradiction reports go directly into mediation packages.
It's the process of reviewing an expert's report, opinions, and the records they relied on — then cross-referencing their conclusions against your client's actual medical file. ProvaLens automates this cross-referencing and surfaces every factual contradiction in minutes rather than days.
Yes. Upload all expert reports — defense IME, plaintiff's expert, treating physician opinions — and ProvaLens cross-references all of them against each other and against the underlying medical records simultaneously. Cases with multiple experts often have the richest contradiction data.
Every flagged contradiction includes citations to the exact document and page number of both the expert's claim and the conflicting record. You review and verify each finding — ProvaLens doesn't make legal conclusions, it shows you where the documents conflict and lets you assess the significance.
