Medical legal photography

Can our professional medical legal photography skills support your practice in litigation claims? 

Over the past few years the number of litigation claims has steadily risen, with more and more people seeking compensation for loss of time, earnings and personal injury. One of the key factors in a successful claim is strong, supportive visual evidence, in the form of reliable photographs, to bring about a quick settlement.

Our team is able produce the photographic and thermal imagery as evidence for you and your clients to support cases such as: 

  • road traffic accidents
  • assault claims
  • slips, trips and falls
  • cycle accidents
  • medical negligence
  • industrial injuries 

With our expertise and experience we document injuries by standardising the photography: objectively illustrating the scars or injuries using controlled lighting techniques. 

Thermography can be used to show deep tissue injuries, pain/arthritis, Charcot's foot/neuropathic ulcers, infections associated with diabetic feet and arthroplasties, reflex sympathetic dystrophy, carpal tunnel syndrome, sports medicine, paediatric orthopaedics, spine, ergonomics and compartment syndrome. 

Charges 

Charges are £180 (Including VAT) per photographic session, this includes 16 photographs. Extra photographs are £5 (Plus VAT) each. 

Thermography session takes longer as the patient and studio will have temperature and humidity recorded. Thermography sessions are limited to six images with a thermal report. 

These will be emailed out on a encrypted PDF once payment has been received.

Medical legal requests should be sent by email to the department of Clinical Photography.
