PRACTICE POINTS
![]()
Whereas anxiety to understand cause can increase reporting accuracy, conflicted

Pre-injury as well as contemporaneous clinical records should be routinely examined before symptoms are attributed to injury
Whenever there is any doubt, litigators should challenge treating and independent physicians to explain what leads them to attribute cause, other than the client's recall
