ACCIDENTS & INJURIES - Clinical Negligence
  • Problems arising from surgical procedures or medical treatment?
  • Do you consider the level of care that you have received to be below the standard that you would expect?
  • Have you experienced loss of earnings for time off work as a result?
  • The incident happened months ago, are you able to make a claim now?
  • You want to make a claim, but cannot afford expensive Legal fees
  • Unsure as to what to do next?

These are all questions that people involved in Clinical Negligence claims have asked us.

If you have been injured, or hurt as a result of medical treatment you have received, or surgical procedures you have undergone, it is possible for you to make a claim for compensation, i.e. money. You may make a claim even if you think it was not entirely the other person's fault. An example of this could be where you were involved in an accident and suffered personal injury, and the treatment you received was not of the appropriate standard. As a result you may be able to pursue a claim for compensation in Clinical Negligence as a result of poor care/treatment you received, as well as making a claim for compensation arising out of personal injury for the original accident, if you were the innocent party.

If you are unsure then you should always seek proper independent skilled Legal advice.

Most people do not make claims because they are worried about expensive Solicitor's costs, but at Knight Polson we offer a FREE initial interview so you do not have to worry about this cost and can concentrate on your claim and your rights.

The initial interview will generally be in person, but can be by telephone or email if you cannot visit us.

At the interview, we will assess your claim and then advise you as to what you could expect to recover in compensation and the procedures involved in achieving this.

Only after this assessment, do we discuss with you how to fund and pay for you claim. We will be able to assess whether you have the availability of a Legal Expenses Insurance Policy, or whether enquiries are to be made in obtaining funding on a "No Win No Fee" basis. This is a scheme whereby you do NOT bear any risks of the case, and more importantly the loser pays the costs arising in conducting your claim under English Law.

What Compensation Can You Recover

  • Pain and suffering arising from the injury.
  • Loss of earnings for time off work.
  • Costs of medication, prescriptions and other medical treatment.
  • Cost of care that you have received.
  • Other costs which have been incurred or lost directly as a result of the injury.

There is also the possibility of claiming future losses if you have to take time off in the future.

So why not find out now what you are entitled to by contacting our Expert, Albie Escorcio, for professional and friendly advice, either by email; by telephone on 02380 644822, or why not try our FREE and simple Enquiry Form.
