#6 of the Top PI attorneys' Doctor Referral Mistakes

This is the sixth most common mistake that PI attorneys make when referring PI patients to Doctors.

Referring PI patients to doctors who do not know, document or understand that duties of duress is the fourth highest PI financial driver based on Colossus or Colossus type software the auto industry uses to determine financial compensation.

4 Categories of Duties Under Duress:
1.      Work-patient could not miss work because of the financial consequences.
2.      Domestic-inside activities/duties of the house(laundry, dishes, etc.)
3.      Household activities-inability to perform duties performed outside of the house (lawn care, landscaping, etc.)
4.      Studies-The patient experiences pain and difficulty in school, sitting, studying, etc.

Three things that must be present to make a claim under duress:
1.      The injured party: Have actually done that activity
2.      The doctor has to note the activity
3.      The lawyer must make a specific claim for duties under duress

What this means to you:
1.      Because Duties Under Duress is the fourth most important financial driver in Colossus and Colossus type auto industry software, a doctor not documenting the Duties Under Duress will hurt your PI financial compensation.
