What Constitutes Medical Negligence?

Medical negligence, also known as medical malpractice, occurs when a healthcare provider, such as a doctor, nurse, or hospital, fails to provide the standard of care expected, resulting in harm to the patient. This can involve misdiagnosis, surgical errors, incorrect medication, or inadequate treatment. To successfully claim medical negligence, it must be proven that the healthcare provider’s actions fell below the accepted standard of care and that this breach directly caused your injury or worsening of your condition.

Common Types of Medical Negligence

  • Misdiagnosis or Delayed Diagnosis: Incorrect or delayed diagnosis that leads to improper treatment or a worsening of the condition.

  • Surgical Errors: Mistakes during surgery, such as operating on the wrong body part or leaving surgical instruments inside the patient.

  • Medication Errors: Prescribing the wrong medication or dosage, causing adverse reactions or insufficient treatment.

  • Birth Injuries: Negligence during childbirth that causes harm to the mother or baby, such as failure to monitor vital signs or improper use of delivery tools.

  • Failure to Warn of Risks: Not informing the patient of the risks involved in a procedure or treatment, preventing them from making an informed decision.

Our Approach to Medical Negligence Claims

Initial Consultation

We begin with a free, no-obligation consultation where we discuss your case, review any relevant medical records, and provide you with clear advice on the best way forward. This is an opportunity for us to understand your circumstances and for you to ask any questions you may have about the process.

Investigation and Evidence Gathering

Building a successful medical negligence claim requires a thorough investigation. We work with medical experts to review your medical history and treatment, obtaining detailed reports to establish whether the standard of care was breached. We also gather additional evidence, such as witness statements and relevant documentation, to support your claim.

Negotiation and Settlement

Once we have established a strong case, we will negotiate with the responsible party’s legal representatives and their insurers to seek a fair settlement. Our goal is to resolve your case as efficiently as possible while ensuring you receive adequate compensation for your medical expenses, loss of income, and pain and suffering. If a satisfactory settlement cannot be reached, we are fully prepared to take your case to court.

Compensation You May Be Entitled To

General Damages

Compensation for pain, suffering, and loss of enjoyment of life caused by medical negligence.

Special Damages

Reimbursement for financial losses incurred due to the negligence, including medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, and loss of income. This can also cover future expenses if ongoing treatment or care is required.

Loss of Earnings

Compensation for loss of income, both past and future, if you are unable to work as a result of the injury.

Care and Assistance

Compensation for the cost of care and assistance required as a result of the injury, whether provided by family members or professional carers.

Why Act Now?

Statutory Time Limits

There are strict time limits for making a medical negligence claim, known as the limitation period. In most cases, you have three years from the date of the negligent act or from when you first became aware of the injury to file a claim. Failing to act within this timeframe can result in losing your right to claim, regardless of the severity of the negligence. It is crucial to seek legal advice as soon as possible to ensure your claim is filed on time.

Preserve Crucial Evidence

The sooner you begin your claim, the easier it is to gather the necessary evidence. Medical records, witness statements, and other crucial information can be harder to obtain as time passes. Early legal intervention increases the likelihood of a successful outcome.
