Statutes & Stethoscopes is a medical-legal podcast for plaintiff, defense and insurance attorneys handling medical malpractice, personal injury, nursing home negligence and wrongful death cases.

Hosted by Tracy Liberatore, a physician assistant turned trial attorney and founder of Med Legal Pro, the show brings trial lawyers, forensic pathologists and expert witnesses into practical conversations about how medically complex cases are built, tested and tried.

Each episode looks at the lessons attorneys learn the hard way: how to read the medical record, spot the issues that decide merit, causation and damages, choose the right medical expert, avoid weak expert reports, and turn complex records into court-ready work product.

The show is made for attorneys who want sharper medical evidence, better expert strategy and cleaner case decisions before the file gets expensive.

Ep 3: The First Expert Call | Building an Ethical, Efficient Medical-Legal Collaboration

Wednesday, September 23, 2026 • Duration 14:26

Episode 3: The First Expert Call - Building an Ethical, Efficient Medical-Legal Collaboration.

Most expert engagements that go wrong were set up wrong on the first call. In this episode I walk through how attorneys and medical experts should run that first conversation: defining the role before discussing the merits, matching the assignment to the expert's actual qualifications, raising conflicts and compensation up front, presenting the case without announcing the answer, being honest about missing records, and putting the agreement in writing. Plus a real example of an expert who re-reviewed a case after the theory changed, never discussed the extra hours, and is still chasing that invoice.

Before your next first call, write down five things: the role, the clinical questions, the records, the boundaries, and the next decision point.

This is educational guidance, not legal advice. Engagement, privilege and disclosure rules vary by jurisdiction; confirm the details for your matter with qualified counsel.

Ep 2: The Witness Preparation Lab | Turning Clinical Expertise Into Court-Ready Testimony

Wednesday, September 23, 2026 • Duration 12:24

Episode 2: The Witness Preparation Lab - Turning Clinical Expertise Into Court-Ready Testimony.

A clinically correct witness can still lose clarity. In this episode I walk through the preparation method that keeps testimony accurate, understandable and independent: naming your opinion in one working sentence, building the bridge from opinion to documented evidence, separating facts from assumptions from clinical reasoning, holding up under cross without over-answering, and knowing what you cannot say.

The five questions before you testify: What exactly is my opinion? Which records support it? What assumptions connect those records? What is the strongest alternative explanation? What can I not say because the evidence or my qualifications do not support it?

This is educational guidance, not legal advice. Case-specific preparation belongs with counsel familiar with the facts and the applicable jurisdiction.

Ep 1: The Timeline Stress Test | Turning Medical Records Into a Causation Story

Wednesday, September 23, 2026 • Duration 14:12

Episode 1: The Timeline Stress Test - Turning Medical Records Into a Causation Story.

A chart can make the same patient look like three different patients. In this episode I walk through the method I use to turn a chaotic medical record into a testable account of what happened, when it happened, and why the timing matters: building an event spine, separating observed facts from later interpretation, finding the first moment a clinician could have acted, and saying out loud what the record cannot support.

Why In-House Lien Resolution Is Costing Your Clients a Fortune ft. Jason Lazarus | Statutes & Stethoscopes Ep. 1

Episode 1

Thursday, September 10, 2026 • Duration 55:42

Jason Lazarus, Founder and Chairman of Synergy, joins Statutes & Stethoscopes to explain why securing a settlement is only part of the job and how proactive settlement planning can protect a catastrophically injured client’s recovery, government benefits, and long-term quality of life.

Jason breaks down the issues trial lawyers need to spot before a case resolves, including healthcare liens, Medicare and Medicaid considerations, special needs trusts, benefit preservation, and the risks of waiting until after settlement to address them. Drawing on his own experience as a serious injury victim, he also explains why the transition from litigation to life requires more than delivering a check and how technology and AI can support law firms without replacing the human judgment these cases demand.

For personal injury attorneys, paralegals, and case managers, the episode offers a practical framework for recognizing complex settlement issues early, bringing in the right experts, counseling clients on their options, and building processes that better protect injured people after their cases are resolved.
