Clinical Negligence Legal Specialists
If you are considering whether or not you or a loved one may be entitled to make a claim for clinical negligence, it is essential that you speak with a solicitor who specialises in this complex area of law.
The complexity of clinical negligence
In order to pursue a clinical negligence claim against the NHS, your GP or another healthcare professional, you need to have the weight of evidence on your side. Before a claim can be issued with a court, it is necessary that a legal specialist and the best medical experts carry out a thorough investigation into the quality of your medical care. In order for a claim to succeed, it must be considered that there has, in fact, been a breach of duty during your medical care and that this act of negligence has indeed caused you or a your loved one to suffer a worse long-term outcome than would have been the case with an appropriate level of care.
With a complex condition or where several different professionals have been involved, this can be an extremely lengthy and complicated procedure.
Furthermore, if it is established that you have been the victim of negligent care, it is then necessary to identify the ways in which the negligence has affected you and your quality of life. This will enable an assessment of the possible value of your claim. An accurate assessment may require the input of experts in areas such as care and accommodation if the negligence has compromised your ability to mobilise around your home.
Specialist expertise
A legal specialist with extensive experience in complex clinical negligence claims will be able to offer the expertise to navigate your way through this intricate process and should also be able to negotiate the best and fairest settlement on your behalf if negligence is established.
Compensation claims for clinical negligence are associated with a legal deadline of three years from the date of the alleged negligence or the date of knowledge. Again, a legal specialist will be able to monitor progress in the investigation of your case and, where necessary, negotiate extensions to this time limit.
