Medical Negligence Claims Solicitors
Compensation for medical negligence arises from situations where you can show that the treatment, or care you received fell below medically acceptable standards, and this resulted in harm, injury or death.
Compensation for medical negligence are commonly found in situations such as:
- Delays in diagnosis
- Careless procedures
- Failure to warn of the risks involved with the treatment
- Failure to obtain proper consent for the proposed procedure
- Medication errors
- Dental negligence
The Law normally requires you to commence Court Proceedings within three years of the date of the injury, or of the date when you first became aware that G.P. or Doctor negligence had led to your injury. These are strict time limits, unless the patient suffers a brain injury as a child.
In medical negligence claims, it is only about claiming compensation.
The Court cannot make a healthcare professional apologise to you, or to discipline him/her.
