Medical
practitioners may be prepared to treat the health consequences
of work related conditions, but they are most often unable
to speak to issues of causation. Therefore,
a legal
practitioner
practicing in this field must rely on medical experts trained
in providing evidence-based testimony to determine whether
such a link exists.
As
a result of our extensive and specialized experience in
areas of medicine and law, we can identify whether a causal
link between exposure and disease exists. Contact

About
Occupational Medicine
Occupational Medicine is a subspecialty of Preventive Medicine
that
focuses on the relationships among the health of workers,
the ability to
perform work, the arrangements of work, and the physical
and chemical
environments of the workplace. Practitioners in this field
recognize
that work and the environment in which work is performed
can have favorable or adverse effects upon the health of
workers; that the nature
or circumstances of work can be arranged to protect worker
health; and
that health and well-being at the workplace are promoted
when workers'
physical attributes or limitations are accommodated in job
placement.
