What do we mean by the term ‘Medico Legal’?

Medicolegal refers to a legal case that requires medical expertise due to an injury or illness. It helps the justice system to find who is responsible for causing this injury or illness, and a medical professional is needed to examine this injury or illness to decide what the effects of this will be on the injured party.
