Both begin with the same core on reading the hospital file; the student course then spends more time on the forensic medicine that comes up in examinations and moots.
Written by Dr. Rupal V. Rana, MBBS, DCH, LLB, LLM, a medical practitioner qualified in law, in consultation with a High Court advocate. She is not an enrolled advocate. This course teaches the medicine a lawyer meets and the law that governs medical evidence; it is not legal advice and it does not teach courtroom advocacy.
Each certificate records completion of a private course. It is not a degree, diploma or recognised qualification, it is not approved by the Bar Council of India, any State Bar Council or the UGC, and it carries no continuing legal education credit.
