Clinical Negligence
Clinical Negligence is a highly specialised area of personal injury work and one in which our solicitors have established an excellent reputation.
We place an enormous amount of trust in our medical advisers and the majority of the time we receive the right advice, treatment and care. Sadly, however, they sometimes get it wrong and this can have a devastating impact on people’s lives. This harm can be a result of negligence, misdiagnosis, substandard treatment or care or defective products (eg stents/implants).

Our Expertise Within Medical Negligence
In the last two years alone we have worked on many medical negligence cases. We have worked on cases as diverse as an A+E department to correctly deal with a diabetic patient’s infection, to an optometrist who failed to refer a patient for specialist consultation and in so doing failed to deal correctly with a very serious illness.
Our expertise, from the first free consultation, will be used to help guide you through the myriad difficulties of such cases to a position where you feel that you are 100% satisfied with the outcome. Such cases can take many months or longer to resolve and you can be assured of the continuity of our attention and diligence.
