TPS

When your case needs more than documents.

Some cases require independent input — not more explanation.

We identify what is actually needed and coordinate it so it supports your case.

Context

Most cases fail because material is unclear, evidence is generic, structure is weak.

Some cases fail because critical input is missing.

When add-ons are required

This is not about adding more. It is about adding the right input at the right point.

The wrong report can weaken your case.

What we do first

Before any add-on is used:

Without this, additional reports often add noise, not value.

Add-on types

1. Expert opinion

Used when: clinical issues are disputed, practice needs independent assessment, standards of care are questioned.

What matters: relevance to allegation, clarity of opinion, independence.

Generic or unfocused reports weaken the case.

2. Specialist assessments

Examples: occupational health, psychological / behavioural, performance-related assessments.

Used when: underlying factors affect practice, risk needs assessment or management.

What matters: credibility, alignment with case, clear conclusions.

3. Targeted testing / evidence

Examples: clinical audits, supervised practice, performance data.

Used when: competence needs demonstration, change needs evidencing.

What matters: specificity, relevance, timing.

4. Drug & alcohol testing

Examples: hair strand testing (up to 12 months retrospective), urine testing, blood markers (CDT, LFTs, PEth for alcohol), chain-of-custody collection.

Used when: substance misuse alleged or admitted, health condition ongoing, abstinence needs evidencing, IOT or review hearing requires objective proof.

What matters: accredited lab (ISO 17025), chain of custody, correct panel matching allegation, sustained testing pattern, consistent negative results over defined window.

Ad-hoc or self-arranged tests often rejected or given low weight. Wrong panel = irrelevant result. Gaps in testing timeline undermine credibility.

Common mistake

Getting reports without a clear purpose.

Result Expensive. Unfocused. Limited value.

How this is coordinated

We:

Additional input only works when it fits the case.

How this works with your lawyer

Result: more effective use of reports, fewer revisions, clearer presentation.

Lawyer-alongside Most of our clients already have legal representation. This is used before and alongside your lawyer to make your case usable.

Cost positioning

Additional services are case-dependent and only used when required.

Unnecessary reports increase cost without improving outcome.

FAQ

Do all cases need expert reports?

No. Many cases do not benefit from additional reports.

Can I arrange these myself?

Yes, but without structure they are often less effective.

Will this increase costs?

Only if needed. The aim is to avoid unnecessary work.

How is this decided?

Through diagnostic assessment of your case.
