Case merit screening
An early read on whether the records support a deviation from the standard of care, and where the weak points are, before you invest in experts.
Every page read by a clinician. Every hour spent where it counts.
Medical-legal consulting for attorneys. Software sorts, de-duplicates and dates thousands of pages of records in hours. Then an experienced clinician reads them, finds what matters to your case, and stands behind the analysis.

The software does the sorting. A clinician does the thinking.
AI is very good at the clerical half of record review and unreliable at the clinical half. So the work is split along that line, and the part that decides your case is never automated.
Software handles
- Sorting records from every provider into one order
- Finding and setting aside duplicate pages
- Pulling dates, times, vitals, medications and orders into a draft timeline
- Indexing every entry to its page number so it can be checked
- Flagging gaps in dates that may mean missing records
Result: hours of clerical work instead of days, which lowers your cost and shortens turnaround.
A clinician handles
- Reading the records, not just the extracted data
- Judging what the standard of care required at each point
- Spotting what is missing, late, altered or contradicted
- Explaining causation and damages in plain language
- Checking every software-drafted entry against its source page before it reaches you
Result: an analysis written and signed by a person you can call, question and rely on.

How your records are handled
Medical records carry protected health information. Here is exactly how they are treated, including by the software.
HIPAA-compliant handling
Records are stored and processed only in systems that meet HIPAA requirements. A business associate agreement is available on request.
Your records don't train anyone's AI
The tools used are [name your tools], under terms that bar your data from being used to train models.
Every finding is traceable
Each entry in a report cites the source page, so you and opposing counsel can check it in seconds.
Defined retention
Records are kept for [X days] after the engagement closes, then deleted, unless you ask otherwise in writing.
Questions attorneys ask
Does AI write the report?
No. Software builds a draft timeline from the records. The clinical analysis, the opinions and the conclusions are written by a clinician, and every software-drafted entry is checked against its source page before it is included.
Why not just use an AI record-review platform?
Those tools are fast at extraction, but they don't know what a nurse should have charted at 01:00, or notice that a neuro check is missing. Those judgments decide cases. Here you get the speed of the software and a clinician's read on top of it.
Do you work for plaintiffs or defense?
Both. A conflict check is run before any engagement begins.
How quickly can you turn a case around?
It depends on page count and the questions you need answered. Because the clerical work is automated, most reviews are completed in [X–Y business days]. Rush timelines are available. You'll have a firm date in your quote.
How is the work priced?
[Flat fee per case / hourly at $X / per-page tiers.] You get a written quote before work begins and won't be billed beyond it without your approval.
Will you testify?
[Your answer: e.g. Hampton MedLaw provides consulting work product. When testimony is needed, we help you find and prepare a qualified testifying expert.]
Is Hampton MedLaw a law firm?
No. Hampton MedLaw provides medical analysis to attorneys and legal professionals. It does not give legal advice or represent clients.
