Whiplash is among the most common injuries arising from road traffic accidents, and reliable medical evidence is central to resolving these claims. Evoque Medical provides access to medical experts who assess whiplash injuries and prepare clear, compliant reports for solicitors, insurers and medical agencies handling personal injury claims.

Following reforms to the way low-value whiplash claims are managed, accurate and properly evidenced reporting matters more than ever. Evoque Medical sources the right expert, arranges the assessment and delivers a robust report that supports a fair outcome.

About Whiplash Injury Reports

Whiplash is a soft-tissue injury to the neck caused by a sudden, forceful movement of the head, typically in a rear-impact collision. Symptoms can include neck pain and stiffness, headaches, shoulder and upper-back discomfort, and reduced range of movement, sometimes accompanied by psychological effects such as travel anxiety.

A whiplash medico-legal report records the claimant’s symptoms and history, examines the injury, addresses the relationship between the accident and the symptoms, and provides a prognosis for recovery. Where appropriate, the report may also identify any need for treatment such as physiotherapy or, where psychological symptoms are present, onward referral.

Since the introduction of the whiplash reforms and the fixed tariff for certain road traffic soft-tissue injuries, the medical report has taken on a defined and important role in the claims process. Accurate documentation of the injury, the recovery period and any exceptional features is essential, both for claims that fall within the tariff and for those that fall outside it.
