Insurance and Legal Media Capture the Biomechanical Revolution Taking Place in New York's Insurance Defense Field

NEW YORK, Jan. 26, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Sean O'Loughlin, President of Global Biomechanical Solutions, a Manhattan Biomechanical Consulting firm, officially announced today that the Biomechanical Revolution in New York's automobile litigation arena is in full swing as more and more insurance and legal media outlets continue to publish articles authored by the revolutionaries on the front line. Like the Federalist Papers of the American Revolution, a number of prominent trial attorneys and industry professionals have begun writing about the latest innovation to the insurance defense field – the use of a biomechanical expert to defend against suspicious bodily injury claims. A biomechanical expert is an engineer of the human body who has a specialty in the motions and forces of the human anatomy and physiology. More and more insurance defense law firms and claims offices are hiring biomechanical experts to reconstruct what happened during an accident for the purpose of determining whether the alleged injuries claimed were caused by the accident. The revolution in the media started with journalist Phil Gusman's "Insurers Tap Biomechanics To Fix Blame For Injuries Claimed In Crashes" published November 2008 in National Underwriter Magazine, which is now Property Casualty 360. Following is a link to said article.
