Medical Negligence
If you, or a member of your family, have been a victim of medical negligence and have suffered personal injury or loss as a result, you need specialist help and advice in exploring what can or should be done for what has happened to you.
We have considerable experience in working for clients in this area and we understand the trauma you have gone through and the sensitivity that your circumstances demand. We understand that you may feel that you can never be compensated adequately for what you have suffered but we believe that if you have suffered injury or loss as a result of negligence while in medical care then you should be fully advised of the legal rights that the law provides for victims and you should be assisted in vindicating those rights to the fullest extent possible.
Medical negligence (which is sometimes referred to by the American expression medical malpractice) refers to a very specialized area of law that provides compensation for medical patients who have suffered injury or loss as a result of negligence in a medical or clinical setting while under the care of a doctor or medical professional and can typically include issues arising in areas such as:
- Obstetrical or gynaecological cases
- Cerebral palsy cases
- Neonatal cases
- Surgical errors (including errors in cosmetic surgery and keyhole surgery)
- Misdiagnosis cases
- Defective medical products
