Medical Negligence – What You Need to Know
In order for a claim of medical/clinical negligence to be successful you, as the Claimant, must prove two things. The first is that the healthcare professional was at fault and therefore breached their duty of care in failing to treat you in the way you would hope to be treated. You must also prove that this fault/failure is what has put you in the position you are now. This is also called ‘causation’.
Our skilled team of medical negligence solicitors appreciate that carrying out a claim against an organisation such as the NHS or a private hospital can be a very intimidating idea, especially after you have already been through an unpleasant experience. You expect to be treated competently and place all your trust in a health professional, but when that trust has been misplaced and you are the victim of clinical negligence, you deserve justice.
