We are experienced solicitors in clinical negligence and birth injury claims.
Doctors and healthcare professionals have a duty of care to their patients. If the standard of care falls below what is considered to be the accepted standard of medical care by other professionals of their specialism, the duty of care has been breached. If as a result of this breach of duty, the patient suffers injury or loss, whether by misdiagnosis, delay in diagnosis or mistreatment, clinical negligence has occurred.

The effects of clinical negligence are varied, with each case having its own set of unique circumstances. In some cases, the damage done is relatively minor and is quickly resolved whereas in more severe circumstances, the patient can be left with life-altering injuries.
If you believe you have been affected by clinical negligence, and that your life has been significantly impacted as a result, we will assess your case and instruct medical experts whose opinion will help determine whether negligence occurred and if so, the effect of any such negligence. We will work hard to ensure that you are compensated for what you have lost due to the negligence.
