Hospital Negligence Claims

Hospital Negligence

There is no doubt that the NHS provides an excellent service to millions of patients every year. Medical negligence is not something most of us thankfully will have to deal with as in the majority of health care cases patients are treated effectively. However there are occasions when things go wrong and bringing a claim against the NHS can be a difficult decision.

Medical negligence also referred to as medical malpractice covers times when a healthcare professional or organisation fails in their duty of care to you causing you injury or harm. This can happen at any time, a routine checkup, a prescription error, during treatment for a specific illness or injury, an accident and therefore going to an A&E department, the diagnosis of an illness, surgery or childbirth.

Medical negligence claims require you to prove two things; that the medical/healthcare professional failed to carry out their responsibilities (fault) and that this failure caused you to be in the position you are now in (avoidable harm).

All you need to do is contact us, we have specially trained medical negligence solicitors who are experienced in sensitively handling such cases.

 It is our job then to prove you have received substandard care, deserving of compensation. If you are successful you will be awarded compensation for the pain, suffering and other losses that you may have incurred because of the negligent treatment you received. As with any claim, there are set time limits on which you are able to do this. On the whole it is three years from the date the incident took place.
