MEDICAL MALPRACTICE
Medical malpractice case evaluation, grounded in comparable verdicts
Medical malpractice cases fail on causation, expert availability, and compliance with notice-of-intent statutes. Valryn scores each lead against these high-leverage variables — so your firm knows which cases to pursue before you invest in expert review.
What Valryn scores in a med-mal lead
Standard of care breach
Valryn captures the specific conduct during intake — procedure performed, deviation from accepted practice, expert accessibility — and flags whether the facts support a prima facie case.
Causation clarity
But-for causation is often the weakest link. Valryn extracts treatment timeline, alternative causes, and pre-existing conditions to surface causation strength before you commit.
Damages calculation
Economic damages (medical bills, lost wages, future care) and non-economic damages are estimated with jurisdiction-specific caps applied — critical in tort-reform states.
Defendant structure
Hospital, medical group, or individual provider? Each changes insurance posture, venue selection, and settlement leverage. Valryn identifies the defendant type and flags vicarious liability signals.
Red flags the AI surfaces early
The cases that look strong on the intake call but collapse six months in — those are the ones Valryn is designed to flag. Each red flag fires at intake, not after you've paid for records.
- Missing or incomplete medical records from relevant timeframe
- No informed consent documentation for the procedure
- Statute of repose expiration (separate from statute of limitations)
- Pre-existing conditions that may explain the harm
- Expert witness availability in the jurisdiction
- Notice-of-intent requirements not satisfied
County-level context for med-mal
Damages caps, judicial attitudes, and jury tendencies vary dramatically by county — not just by state. Valryn's benchmark dataset is built for this: verdicts are indexed by incident county so your case is compared to what's actually happening in your venue.
