NEURO PHYSIOTHERAPIST (ADULT) – LONDON AREA
NATIONWIDE - SELF EMPLOYED - HIGH EARNING POTENTIAL
Are you an experienced neuro-physiotherapist looking for a new challenge - one that allows you to apply your specialist knowledge in a different, thought-provoking way, without stepping away from your field? Expert witness work offers the opportunity to extend your skillset and contribute to the legal resolution of healthcare-related cases.?
As an established leader within medico legal industry, we are currently looking to grow our UK-wide network of adult neuro-physiotherapy expert witnesses, particularly those who are based within and around the London area.
With a long-standing reputation built over 40 years, we’re proud to be a trusted and consistent source of clinical expertise for law firms and insurers alike. Our growing network of experts is valued not just for its breadth, but for the care, clarity and objectivity each professional brings to their role.
What is an Expert Witness?
As a self-employed associate on our expert witness panel, you’ll have the opportunity to apply your clinical expertise in a new context, working alongside some of the UK’s leading solicitors and insurers. You’ll also be supported by a dedicated and knowledgeable team at Bush & Co - people who are genuinely passionate about the expert witness role, who value professional growth, and who are committed to making a meaningful contribution to every case.
You will work with both claimant and defendant solicitors on cases involving clients who have sustained serious injury as a result of alleged clinical negligence or personal injury, to assess ‘quantum’ by considering the Claimant’s pre-injury circumstances, the impact of the injury on daily life, and their future physiotherapy needs.
