Services
Medical Negligence
We handle medical negligence cases where healthcare professionals' substandard care caused physical or psychological harm. Our solicitors investigate treatment failures, misdiagnoses, and surgical errors. We secure compensation for ongoing care, lost earnings, and pain and suffering through expert legal representation.
Personal Injury Claims
Our team specialises in personal injury claims for accidents at work, road traffic incidents, and public place injuries. We prove liability and quantify damages for pain, financial losses, and future care needs. Cases are handled on a no win no fee basis with transparent costs.
Inquests Representation
We provide legal representation during inquest proceedings following unexpected deaths. Our solicitors assist families in understanding the process, gathering evidence, and questioning witnesses to establish factual circumstances surrounding deaths in medical or state care settings.
Clinical Negligence Claims
Our specialists investigate substandard medical care from NHS trusts and private practitioners. We work with medical experts to prove negligence and causation, securing compensation for treatment errors, birth injuries, and delayed diagnoses through negotiated settlements or court proceedings.
No Win No Fee Claims
We offer conditional fee agreements removing financial risk for clients. If claims fail, clients pay no legal fees. Successful cases see legal costs recovered from opponents, with client compensation protected through transparent deduction limits specified in funding agreements.
Questions
How do I start a medical negligence claim?
Contact our solicitors for a free initial assessment. We'll review your medical records and circumstances to determine if negligence occurred and advise on proceeding with a claim.
What is the time limit for personal injury claims?
Most claims must be filed within three years of the incident. Exceptions apply for minors and cases involving mental incapacity. Early legal consultation ensures evidence preservation.
Can I claim compensation if partly at fault?
Partial liability doesn't bar compensation. Courts apportion blame and reduce awards proportionally. Our solicitors negotiate liability percentages to maximise client recoveries in shared fault scenarios.
What costs are involved in making a claim?
We offer no win no fee agreements. If successful, legal costs come from compensation, capped at 25% excluding future care costs. Public funding options may apply in specific cases.
What evidence supports a medical negligence case?
Key evidence includes medical records, independent expert reports, and witness statements. Our team arranges expert evaluations to establish standard of care breaches and causation for successful claims.
