Our Medical Negligence Claims Process

Our medical negligence solicitors follow a structured five-step approach designed to build the strongest possible case while providing you with clear guidance throughout the process. This methodical approach ensures we gather all necessary evidence and expert opinions to maximise your chances of success. 

1. Free Initial Assessment  

We provide a comprehensive review of your case at no cost during an initial consultation. Our medical negligence solicitors assess whether you have grounds for a claim, explain the legal process clearly, and provide honest advice about your prospects of success. 

2. Medical Records Review and Expert Analysis  

We obtain all relevant medical records from hospitals, GP practices, and other healthcare providers involved in your care. Our medical negligence solicitors then arrange for independent medical experts to review your treatment and provide professional opinions on the standard of care received. 

3. Legal Merit Assessment  

Our medical negligence solicitors assess the strength of your case, considering both breach of duty and causation elements. We evaluate whether the healthcare provider fell below accepted standards and whether this breach caused your injuries or made them worse than they would otherwise have been. 

4. Letter of Claim and Response  

We formally notify the healthcare provider of your claim, setting out the allegations and supporting evidence in detail. Our medical negligence solicitors then carefully assess their response and engage in negotiations where appropriate to achieve early resolution. 

5. Settlement Negotiation or Court Proceedings  

Most medical negligence claims settle through negotiation without going to court. If court proceedings become necessary, our experienced medical negligence solicitors provide expert representation throughout the litigation process to secure maximum compensation.

Frequently Asked Questions About Medical Negligence Claims

How do I know if I have a medical negligence claim?

Our medical negligence solicitors can assess your case during a free consultation. Generally, you need to show that your treatment fell below acceptable medical standards and that this breach caused you harm that wouldn’t have occurred with proper care.

How long do I have to make a medical negligence claim?

Usually, three years from the date of the negligent treatment or from when you became aware you were harmed by negligence. There are exceptions for children and people lacking mental capacity. Our medical negligence solicitors can advise on specific time limits for your case.

How much compensation could I receive?

Compensation varies depending on the severity of your injuries, financial losses, and ongoing care needs. Our medical negligence solicitors will provide realistic estimates based on similar cases and your specific circumstances during your initial consultation.

Will my medical negligence claim go to court? 

Most medical negligence claims settle without going to court through negotiation or alternative dispute resolution. However, our medical negligence solicitors are able to support you through Court proceedings if the case goes to court.
