Medical Negligence
Let Us Lend a Helping Hand
Did a Doctor or Nurse make a mistake when treating you or a loved one? Did a surgical procedure or hospital treatment go wrong? Did a Doctor make an incorrect diagnosis?
Whether it happened in the NHS or privately, you may have a Medical Negligence or Clinical Negligence case.
Failed by a medical expert?
Doctors, Surgeons, Dentists, Pharmacists, Midwives, Nurses and Care Home Attendants, to name but a few, all have a Duty of Care to treat you with skill, care and diligence.
If they’ve failed to do so, then we can help make sure that justice is done.
Our expert personal injury solicitors understand that compensation is only a small element of making a claim. For many people it is knowing that they can have help with rehabilitation and that both you and your family have access to expert legal advice.
Claim compensation for medical negligence
You may be entitled to compensation for medical costs, pain and suffering, lost wages, and loss of earning capacity.
It’s not a simple process though and you need to be prepared to have to negotiate with the NHS hospital, the Doctor or the Medical Trust that’s involved.
Our Medical Negligence Solicitors are committed to fighting for justice so that you get the compensation you deserve.
We’re experienced negotiators and litigators and we will:
Evaluate your case and advise you on how likely you are to succeed.
Ask you questions to ascertain the full impact of the negligence.
Gather evidence to investigate what happened and who was at fault.
Instruct medical experts on your behalf

Frequently Asked Questions
Clinical or medical negligence is when a person receives treatment or care from a healthcare profession that has fallen below the standard expected.
If the care or service provided has in some way caused the person to experience ill health as a direct result, then they may be able to pursue a claim for medical negligence.
There are quite strict rules concerning the time limits to claim compensation but in most cases a solicitor will need to be instructed and paperwork will have to be filed within three years of the incident happening.
There should be absolutely no impact on your medical treatment or your relationship with the doctors and nurses caring for you. None of the medical clinicians should try to talk to you about the claim.
Possibly. After we have reviewed your medical records, if we still believe you have a case, we will instruct a medical expert. In medical negligence cases, the first reports will not require you to see an expert and they will form a view following receipt of your medical notes and records.
Before issuing legal proceedings we will send you to a medical expert for examination. The type of expert will depend on the nature of your injuries.
