Clinical Negligence Compensation – Can I Claim?

If you have received medical treatment that has caused you further pain and suffering, or simply delayed your recovery time, you may be able to make a claim for clinical negligence compensation.

The treatment received could be from the NHS or a private practitioner. You could even claim compensation if your cosmetic surgery has gone wrong.

We have specialist clinical negligence solicitors who can investigate your claim for compensation and help you to claim clinical negligence compensation.

When Can I Claim Clinical Negligence Compensation?

We aim to help our clients receive compensation for any pain, suffering and disruption to their quality of life. We also hope that by identifying medical mistakes improvements will be made that will prevent other victims from suffering.

Clinical negligence compensation can be claimed as a result of:

• Misdiagnosis
• Mistakes during surgery
• Poor aftercare
• Failure to obtain proper consent for treatment
• Delayed referral
• System failures causing infection
• Mistakes/errors during cosmetic procedures
• Mistakes/errors during dentistry procedures

This list is not exhaustive and you are advised to speak to a specialist solicitor if you think that you have received medical treatment that has caused you to sustain injury or illness.

It must be remembered that not every mistake will be classed as negligence and lead to a claim. It must be proved that there were serious errors in your treatment that no competent doctor would have made, and that these errors caused or contributed to your pain and suffering.

Clinical Negligence – What Can I Claim?

If you have received clinically negligent treatment then you will be able to claim for the pain and suffering experienced as well as any financial expenses incurred as a result of the accident.

The amount of money claimed for your personal injury will depend on the severity of your injuries, pain and suffering and the affect it has had on your quality of life.

Financial expenses that you may be able to claim could include loss of earnings, cost of further medical treatment or the cost of any care required as a result of the injury or illness sustained.
