clinical negligence compensation claim
We are a UK law firm with over 20 years experience winning clinical and medical negligence compensation claims in the UK. Our clinical negligence team includes a nurse, a midwife and specialist NHS litigation lawyers.
In our experience people who start a clinical negligence claim are often looking for two things: financial compensation is crucial but also many of our clients want to know why the negligence happened to them. Our clinical negligence claims service will assist you in both areas.
We provide advice on how to put together an effective complaint to the NHS and the General Medical Council. We can also provide mediation services to help find out what your concerns and interests are. We also offer ongoing support particularly if your clinical negligence claim involves case management, long term rehabilitation or therapeutic support.
clinical negligence claims - our approach
A clinical negligence compensation claim is stressful. We know this and we always do what we can to ease the burden. The good news is that many clinical negligence cases settle before going to Court because, after expert investigation, it is clear that medical treatment had been below the necessary standard.
Right from the start we provide you with sensible and realistic advice, in plain English. In particular we cover the following areas:
- The options available to you
- How to progress your case
- The likelihood of success
- The timescales of your claim
We carry out a full and independent investigation into what happened in your case. This involves gathering all the relevant evidence and seeking the best analysis and expert opinions of the facts.
