Medical Negligence

Medical negligence, also known as clinical negligence, occurs when healthcare professionals fail to provide the standard of care expected, resulting in harm to the patient.

This can include errors in diagnosis, treatment, aftercare, or health management. If you or a loved one has suffered due to medical negligence, you may be entitled to compensation.

  1. Misdiagnosis or Delayed Diagnosis: Incorrect or late diagnosis can lead to inappropriate treatment, worsening of the condition, or even death.

  2. Surgical Errors: Mistakes during surgery, such as operating on the wrong body part, leaving surgical instruments inside the body, or causing nerve damage.

  3. Medication Errors: Incorrect prescribing, dispensing, or administering medication that leads to adverse effects.

  4. Birth Injuries: Negligence during childbirth, resulting in injuries to the mother or baby, such as cerebral palsy or Erb's palsy.

  5. Hospital-Acquired Infections: Infections like MRSA that are contracted due to unsanitary hospital conditions.

  6. Negligent Medical Advice: Providing incorrect or misleading advice leading to harm.
