APIL has put together guidance for members on the, sometimes quite complex, issues which can arise in relation to the recording of meetings with medical experts (whether the claimant’s own expert or the defendant’s expert). 

This webinar will introduce the guidance, give a reminder of the background, explore the tactical considerations and outline some of the practicalities and cover:

• Background and reminder of relevant case law
• Why the guidance?
• Overt or covert recordings?
• Purpose of recordings
• Disclosure of recordings
• Recording meetings with the claimant’s expert?
• Recording meetings with the defendant’s expert?
• Dealing with the defendant
• Liaising with experts
• Advising the claimant
• Procedural, case management and costs management implications of recording meetings
