A Medical Negligence claim (also referred to as Clinical Negligence claim) describes the process by which a victim of medical malpractice can bring a legal action seeking compensation from a health care professional or body where it is determined that the healthcare providers actions (negligence) resulted in injury to the patient.
If you have received substandard care from a medical or heath professional and you have suffered an injury as a direct result of the health care professional’s actions you may have a claim for medical negligence. Similarly, you might have a claim where for medical negligence or clinical negligence where you have had a procedure that causes a pre-existing condition to get worse. Medical negligence can arise through misdiagnoses, incorrect treatment being given, late diagnosis and surgical mistakes

FAULT
You may hear your Medical Negligence Lawyer talk about a ‘breach of duty’. This simply means that, for the type of treatment you received, your care fell below the standard expected of a reasonably competent and skillful specialist. In other words, they failed to treat you in the way you could reasonably hope to be treated.
AVOIDABLE HARM
This is also called ‘causation’. It means that you need to show that the negligent care (rather than the underlying condition) caused you harm. This may sound relatively easy, but it can be difficult, particularly if have a complex health history. By speaking to one of our Medical Negligence Lawyers, you will be givingyourself the best chance as proving Causation. C
