When was the last time you calculated how much time your team spends chasing medical records? If you’re handling mass torts or high-volume single-event cases, you already know the answer, too much.
In a recent Trial Lawyer View by Synergy podcast conversation, I sat down with Daniel Miner of Angeion Group to talk about a challenge that plagues even the most sophisticated firms, validating cases quickly and thoroughly while keeping clients engaged through the long haul. The solutions his team is delivering could change how trial lawyers think about case development.
🔍 The Hidden Bottleneck in Mass Torts
Medical records are the backbone of any valid claim. But retrieving them is rarely straightforward. Facilities reject requests for everything from name changes to incorrect date ranges. Your staff ends up chasing both the providers and the clients, burning hours that could be spent building winning case strategy.
Angeion is tackling this head-on with a blend of AI, nursing expertise, and a nationwide client engagement operation. They start with electronic health record networks, pull everything available, then validate with trained nurses. The result? You get the right records, tied directly to the right claimant in your CMS, without the operational drag.
🚀 Why This Matters for Growth-Minded Firms
Scaling a trial practice isn’t just about signing more clients, it’s about moving them from intake to resolution efficiently. Every time your paralegals stop to resend a HIPAA form or confirm a doctor’s visit from three years ago, momentum slows. Miner’s approach keeps that process moving, letting your team focus on the advocacy that wins.
Angeion also solves a problem many firms overlook: client fallout. Mass torts can take years, and frustrated clients can disappear. Proactive engagement throughout the litigation keeps them connected, informed, and ready when it’s time to sign settlement documents.
💡 The Takeaway for Innovative Trial Lawyers
If you’re serious about growth, think beyond marketing and intake. Look at your operational bottlenecks. Ask yourself:
- How much of our team’s time is spent on tasks that don’t require legal expertise?
- Do we know which cases will hold up at resolution — before investing years into them?
- Are we keeping clients engaged from day one to settlement?
The firms that can answer those questions with confidence will be the ones that scale profitably in the next decade.
