Could I Seek Compensation For Clinical Or Medical Negligence?

Clinical or medical negligence is a term used to describe a situation where a patient has experienced further or avoidable harm after receiving substandard care from a medical professional.

Clinical negligence can take many forms, such as:

  • A pharmacist may have distributed the wrong medication to you when organising your prescription. As a result, you may have sustained further harm due to taking medication that was prescribed to someone else.
  • An anaesthetist may have failed to administer the correct dosage of anaesthetic, causing you to wake up during surgery. As a result, you may have experienced psychological trauma as well as physical complications.

As you can see, medical negligence can cause both physical injuries and psychological problems due to stress and trauma. If you have experienced something similar, you may wish to submit a claim and get compensation for the pain and suffering you’ve experienced.

Before doing so, you may wish to find a solicitor equipped to deal with your case. Legal Expert operates a nationwide claims service and could connect you with one of our medical negligence solicitors for Paignton.

When searching for a solicitor or legal firm to represent your compensation claim for medical negligence, you may wish to consider various factors to ensure you choose the right solicitor.

Different Types Of Claims Our Medical Negligence Solicitors For Paignton Could Handle

We understand that the process of putting forward a medical negligence claim may seem daunting. For that reason, our solicitors could help as they have experience handling a wide array of claims for negligence in a medical setting.

We have outlined some of the most common cases we take on below:

  • Hospital negligence claims: A person may have developed a hospital infection due to poor hygiene.
  • Doctor or GP negligence claims: A doctor may have failed to refer you for further tests when they were unsure of what was causing your condition. As a result, you may have experienced further harm due to delayed treatment.
  • Birth injury negligence claim: A midwife may have incorrectly used forceps during your labour, causing you to sustain a broken pelvis. Alternatively, they may have failed to monitor your baby’s oxygen levels leading to them sustaining minor brain damage.

Benefits Of No Win No Fee Medical Negligence Solicitors For Paignton

If you’re concerned about the costs often associated with legal representation, we may have an option that could help.

In some circumstances, you may be required to pay upfront costs for a solicitor to start working on your claim. However, under a No Win No Fee agreement, you won’t be asked to pay anything to begin your claim.

Additionally, there is no initial cost when you put forward a claim without legal representation, but you could accumulate other costs while your claim is ongoing.

For instance, you may be required to pay fees for medical evidence. However, these costs are covered under the agreement.

Furthermore, if we lose your case, you won’t be asked to pay fees to your solicitor.

If a compensation payment is secured, a fee will be taken from your overall settlement figure to pay for the work your solicitor has done. However, this is calculated as a legally capped percentage and is something your solicitor will make you aware of.

Each of our medical negligence solicitors for Paignton could take your case on this basis. If you’d like to learn more, see below for how to get in touch with our team.
