Medical Records Retrieval

Medical records document important evidence in personal injury and medical malpractice cases. Yet requesting, organizing and indexing medical records can be a time-consuming task.

Our skilled litigation paralegals offer complete medical record retrieval services, including:

  • Gathering signed and notarized HIPAA medical authorization forms
  • Researching contact information for medical providers
  • Confirming dates of treatment, xrays, surgeries and extended hospital stays
  • Preparing requests for certified copies of medical records
  • Following up with medical providers to track the requests until the records are in your hands

We can also prepare requests for production of document to non-parties to gather pertinent medical records.

During our years in the industry, we have developed strong relationships with key staff members in charge of responding to these types of requests. This means we are often able to get the documents you need in hand quickly.

Once the records arrive, we offer document management services in the form of file organization, case chronologies, time lines and medical summaries. Our services allow attorneys to get a quick overview of the medical issues present in the case, including any pre-existing concerns and ongoing treatment.

Contact us today to see how we can lighten your workload and help you retrieve the medical records you need.
