From an expert opinion
to material a lawyer can work with.

AR3S works with the expert opinion together with the medical records and other materials relevant to its assessment. It analyses the expert’s reasoning, checks how well the conclusions are supported by the sources and prepares a report showing which passages deserve particular attention.

The material

The opinion is not analysed in isolation from the case.

The expert opinion is the starting point. It can be accompanied by medical records, the questions put to the expert and other materials that matter when assessing the conclusions.

AR3S uses these materials as a point of reference. This makes it possible to assess not only whether the opinion is internally coherent, but also whether its key statements are supported by the sources.

The aim is simple: give the lawyer enough context to see where an objection comes from and decide whether it is worth pursuing.

The report

The report should show not only what is wrong, but why.

The point is not to produce another summary of the opinion. Each material concern should be described clearly enough for the lawyer to assess its significance and decide whether it is worth using.

The relevant passage

The precise part of the opinion to which the concern relates.

What the problem is

A direct explanation of whether the issue is an error, inconsistency, omission, overstatement or another weakness in the reasoning.

Basis for the assessment

Reference to the medical records, other case materials and specialist knowledge relevant to the finding.

Possible next step

A suggestion as to whether the issue may be worth raising, addressing through further questions or checking in more detail.

CEM

Detailed analysis, without losing the link to the sources.

CEM is AR3S’s proprietary analytical core. Its job is to combine detailed review of the opinion with control of the material on which the expert’s conclusions are based.

A specific passage, a specific concern

The report points to the part of the opinion that gives rise to the concern instead of limiting itself to a general assessment of the document.

Grounded in the material

Where an assessment depends on records or another source, the report shows the material relevant to verifying the finding.

A result that can be checked

The aim is not to produce an answer that has to be taken on trust. The lawyer should have enough information to judge whether a concern is actually sound.

Where it fits

Especially where medicine has a real bearing on the outcome of the case.

AR3S is being built for matters in which assessing an expert opinion requires more than legal analysis alone.

Personal injury and compensation

Accidents, injuries and disputes over health consequences, causation or the amount of compensation.

Medical malpractice

Cases in which diagnosis, treatment, causation and the interpretation of medical records need to be assessed carefully.

Social security and disability

Proceedings concerning work capacity, independent living and degree of disability.

Insurers

With a high volume of cases, even a small improvement in the quality of expert-opinion assessment can have significant operational and financial impact.

Pilot programmes

We want to test AR3S
on real expert opinions.

We are preparing AR3S for pilot use with lawyers and legal teams, especially in matters where an expert opinion in medicine may materially affect what happens next.
