Legal500 Leading law firmChambers and Partners logo 2012Free and confidential initial advice in all clinical negligence cases

If you have experienced problems with medical treatment it can have a serious impact on your life. As well as the physical symptoms to deal with, it can also cause depression and other similar conditions.

If you have received substandard medical treatment and been left with injuries that could have been avoided, we can help. You may have been wrongly diagnosed, not diagnosed at all, or not warned properly about the side effects of treatment.

Our clinical negligence solicitors specialise in claims concerning negligent medical treatment. We can also help if you have been injured as a result of faulty medical equipment or medication. We have helped victims successfully claim financial medical compensation ranging from £2,000 for minor injuries to nearly £5m for very serious injuries.

We provide a confidential and sympathetic service and try to make investigating a case as easy as possible. We don't have a standard approach: we focus on trying to get answers and on providing the service that is right for you.

You may find it difficult to talk with someone of the opposite sex and we can arrange for you to be seen by a male or female Solicitor if this would help. One of our Solicitors has been a victim of clinical negligence herself.

No Win, No Fee and Legal Aid may be available.

We also bring claims against solicitors and barristers arising from negligent advice given in previous cases about clinical negligence.
