For Solicitors

Kill duds earlier. Protect WIP. Brief experts with confidence.

80% of clinical negligence inquiries go nowhere. The 20% that do still face a high attrition rate. MedCase helps you make the keep-or-kill decision earlier, with evidence-linked findings ready for qualified review.

The problem

Every hour on a case that won’t run is unrecoverable.

Under no win, no fee, WIP is the metric that matters. Five to ten hours of fee-earner time on a case the firm later has to drop is what hurts most. Faster, sharper triage is the lever.

Most inquiries don’t become claims

Roughly 80% of clinical negligence inquiries don’t reach a viable claim, but every one still needs an initial read.

Manual triage is slow and inconsistent

Different fee-earners reach different views on borderline files. Inconsistency creates risk and churn.

Expert screening is expensive

Sending borderline files to an expert before triage is costly. A sharper internal view first reduces that spend.

Capacity caps the team

Time spent on duds is time not spent on viable claims, so capacity gets capped at the rate of triage.

Workflow fit

Slots into the process you already follow.

01

Inquiry intake

New inquiry arrives. You gather records from healthcare providers.

02

Upload to MedCase

Records go into MedCase. OCR is applied to scanned and handwritten pages automatically.

03

Protocol selection

You select the relevant clinical protocols: NICE guidelines, Royal College guidelines, local trust pathways.

04

Severity-scored review

You review evidence-linked findings prioritised by severity for professional review. AI case chat answers follow-ups against the record.

05

Keep or kill

A clear, evidence-backed view earlier in the file, so you can keep, kill, or progress to expert with confidence.

06

Brief the expert

If progressing, the structured findings report briefs the expert with precise, evidence-linked protocol issues.

Sample finding

A real-shape, anonymised finding.

Every potential issue is structured with a severity score (1 to 10) to help prioritise professional review, a direct evidence quote, a protocol reference, and a page citation back to the original record.

ROI framing

What does this cost vs. doing it manually?

UK national hourly rates run from approximately £110/hr at trainee level to £300/hr at senior partner level (higher in London). A clinical negligence file that takes a trainee or paralegal half a day to screen manually costs £400 to £1,200 in fee-earner time alone, before any expert involvement.

MedCase works out at £150 per screened case on Core (£1,500/mo, 10 cases) and £100 per screened case on Advanced (£2,500/mo, 25 cases), with carry-over add-ons available for higher months.

Rates and hours are illustrative national figures. Your actual saving depends on the rate of the fee-earner doing the screening and the volume of inquiries you handle.

FAQ

FAQs for solicitors

How does MedCase fit into our case-handling workflow?
MedCase sits at the early-stage assessment point of your existing workflow. You upload the medical record set, select the relevant clinical protocols, and review evidence-linked findings prioritised by severity. The output briefs a qualified fee-earner or expert for the keep-or-kill decision. It does not replace the medical expert or the solicitor.
How long does a case take to process?
Most cases process in minutes. Typical clinical negligence record sets (hundreds to a few thousand pages) produce a severity-scored findings report and AI case chat ready for review within minutes of upload.
What file formats and sizes are supported?
MedCase accepts PDF documents up to 2 GB, including scanned and handwritten records. OCR is applied automatically where needed. Cases can include multiple uploads for one matter.
How does MedCase handle PII and UK GDPR?
Direct identifiers are stripped through triple-layer PII sanitisation (Microsoft Presidio, spaCy NER, and 30+ UK medical-record regex patterns) before any AI processing. Records are encrypted at rest with AES-256-GCM and hosted in Europe. MedCase is built to support UK GDPR requirements; full detail is in the Trust Centre and DPA.
Will customer data be used to train AI models?
No. Customer records are not used to train models. AI providers used by MedCase are configured to disable training on submitted prompts and outputs.
Can the team share cases across the firm?
Yes. Every account is organised around organisations with unlimited team members on all plans. Organisation owners can allow all members to see all cases or restrict visibility to cases each member created.
How does the team brief an expert with MedCase output?
The findings report is structured with severity scores, evidence quotes, protocol references, and page citations, ready to be shared with an instructed medical expert as a pre-read. The expert can verify each finding against the record and focus their review on the issues most likely to support the claim.
How does pricing work for a small team?
Core is £1,500/month for 10 cases (about £150 per screened case), Advanced is £2,500/month for 25 cases (about £100 per screened case), and Enterprise is custom. Add-on cases can be purchased without changing plans and never expire. Full detail on the pricing page.
