Have you or a loved one suffered as a result of a medical error, misdiagnosis or delay in treatment?
Medical negligence occurs when a healthcare provider, such as a doctor, nurse, hospital, or other medical professional, fails to deliver treatment that meets the accepted standard of care, resulting in harm, injury, or loss to the patient.
This can happen through a number of ways, including errors in diagnosis, delays in treatment, surgical mistakes, medication errors, or inadequate follow-up care.
Medical negligence claims aim to compensate patients for the damage they have suffered but also ensure accountability and seek to improve safety standards within the healthcare system.

Our Medical Negligence Claims Process
We aim to make the claims process as clear and supportive as possible:
You will meet with one of our experienced medical negligence lawyers to discuss your situation and assess whether you have cause to proceed.
We collect all relevant medical records and, where appropriate, consult an expert in the relevant field.
If your case has a solid basis, we draft and file a Statement of Claim to initiate proceedings. We will manage all procedural steps and engage a barrister if your case requires court level advocacy.
We obtain appropriate evidence about how your injury affects your life. This can include reports from specialists like rehabilitation physicians or occupational therapists and use this to quantify your compensation claim.
Many cases settle through mediation or informal conferences, which can be quicker and less stressful. If settlement fails, we are prepared to represent you at trial, always managing the risks and costs with your best interests in mind.
Take the First Step – Reach Out for Support
Medical negligence cases can be complex and emotionally draining. That is why we offer initial assessments without cost or obligation. If we believe your case has genuine prospects, we will handle the rest and can offer a No Win, No Fee cost agreement.
