CLINICAL NEGLIGENCE HOME
"The firm is Fareham-based with
a healthy reputation for its clinical negligence work.
Recently the team won admiration for its handling of a fatal accident
claim. The case involved complex quantum and causation issues, eventually
settling in the claimant's favour."
- Chambers and Partners Directory 2007
Fortunately, cases of Clinical Negligence (where your hospital, doctor or other professional has been negligent in your medical treatment) are relatively rare. However, those people who are victims of Clinical Negligence often suffer pain and incur other losses such as loss of earnings.
When legal action is taken, it can lead to improvements in procedures, tightening of rules and the raising of national standards of professional practice.
This will help to prevent similar mistakes being made in the future. If you are the victim of a medical accident you may also be entitled to recover damages for your pain, suffering and lossses, such as loss of earnings.
