Our medical negligence service

Building a strong medical negligence compensation claim

To succeed in a medical negligence compensation claim, it must be proven that:

The medical treatment fell below a reasonable standard (breach of duty); and
The failure directly caused avoidable harm (causation).

This requires detailed legal analysis and robust independent medical expert evidence. Our medical negligence lawyers work with leading specialists across multiple disciplines to build strong, evidence-based cases.

In complex and catastrophic injury cases, we will also try to seek interim payments wherever possible to fund the necessary rehabilitation, specialist equipment and care while the claim progresses.

Mediation processes

Many medical negligence claims are resolved through negotiation or formal mediation. Where liability is admitted or our evidence is strong, we aim to secure a fair settlement without the need for court proceedings.

Mediation can provide:

Earlier financial support
Reduced stress and uncertainty
Greater flexibility in reaching agreement

Our medical negligence solicitors are highly experienced in conducting settlement negotiations and mediation on behalf clients, always focused on achieving the best possible outcome, in the circumstances.

Court processes

If liability is denied or a fair settlement cannot be reached and the merits of your case remain strong, court proceedings may be necessary to seek a resolution.

We prepare every case thoroughly from the outset so that, if litigation becomes unavoidable, you are in the strongest possible position. You will receive clear explanations at every stage, including:

Issuing court proceedings
Disclosure of evidence
Expert meetings
Trial preparation

While most medical negligence claims settle before trial, our team has extensive experience in High Court litigation and will represent you robustly where required.

Client support & rehabilitation service

Serious medical negligence can leave lasting physical and psychological effects. Alongside expert legal advice, we provide access to our specialist Client Support & Rehabilitation Service.

Rehabilitation is often a vital but expensive step in the beginning stages of managing cerebral palsy. We aim to support you through your rehabilitation journey, regardless of the outcome of your claim.

With our specialist client support and rehabilitation team we can support you to:

Access medical and therapeutic treatment for your condition
Ensure a smooth transition from hospital to home (including aids and adaptations)
Apply for disability and/or welfare benefits
Access funding to pay for care in your home
Seek education funding for children and young people.

We believe that pursuing a medical negligence claim should also focus on recovery and restoring independence wherever possible.

No win no fee medical negligence

Many of our cases are funded through no win no fee medical negligence agreements.

This means:

You will not pay legal fees if your claim is unsuccessful
Fees are capped if your claim succeeds
The majority of your compensation remains with you

We will explain funding arrangements transparently before you proceed, including whether Legal Expenses Insurance may assist.
