Patients usually only have one chance to investigate and pursue a medical negligence claim so it is important to instruct specialists who will provide the expertise and level of service to ensure that your claim has the best possible chance of success.
Clinical Negligence
Unfortunately, when a doctor or nurse makes a mistake it can be a traumatic and stressful experience and can often have serious financial implications for the lives of patients and their families. In our view a patient or a patient's family should not have to endure financial hardship caused by a doctor or nurse's error. We are here to help ease that hardship as much as possible.
Our specialist Clinical Negligence team has secured settlements worth many millions of pounds for victims of medical negligence, providing much needed financial security together with vital care and equipment costs.
Having us on your side will give your case the best chance of success. Bringing a claim can also help ensure improvements in medical standards and treatment, so that the same thing doesn’t happen again. We have an accredited specialist panel member, approved by the Law Society, and our office has a contract for publicly funded cases, a mark of our excellence and dedication in this area.
Those who have suffered medical injuries will understandably be concerned about cost. We will explore with you funding arrangements including the possibility of handling the case on a ‘no win, no fee’ basis and/or with insurance. We will advise you as to the strength of your claim and find a way of helping you to pursue your case with compassion and diligence. We will also provide a free 'no charge' preliminary discussion with an experienced clinical negligence solicitor. We can arrange home and/ or hospital visits.
