Medical negligence (sometimes known as “clinical negligence” or “medical malpractice”) occurs when you suffer an injury as a result of a health care professional not providing a proper level of care to you.
Medical negligence covers negligent treatment by doctors, surgeons and nurses, but also covers other forms of medical treatment you receive from dentists, opticians, plastic surgeons and midwifes.
When there is a mistake in your diagnosis or treatment, the result can be devastating. A medical negligence solicitor can help you claim compensation for your injuries but we understand that money cannot replace health. Compensation is just one step on the road to your recovery.
