Birmingham Medical Negligence Solicitors

This area of law covers a range of sins, so to speak, covering claims arising from hospital care, dental negligence, cosmetic procedures and mistreatment in care homes.

We would typically act on your behalf and make a claim against your Doctor, Pharmacist, Optician, Dentist, Consultant or GP. They could be in Birmingham or anywhere in England or Wales.

These types of compensation claims can be quite technical and require lawyers experienced in such types of medical negligence claims. ie. that's where we come in.

As an aside, if you have a loved one in a vulnerable position and receiving care, it may be advantageous to mention to the medical team that you're considering instructing a solicitor if the standard of care, and attention to detail, doesn't improve. There's anecdotal evidence that this approach has helped in the past.

This isn't an exhaustive list but we deal with;

 Nursing and Care home negligence.

 Medication errors.

 Cosmetic Surgery mistakes.

 Dental negligence.

 Anaesthetic negligence

 Delays in diagnosis (ie. in time sensitive situations such as Cancer).

 Amputation negligence.

 Birth injuries.

In such situations you are entitled to claim compensation for pain and suffering. Additionally allowances will be made if the matters have affected your lifestyle. You may also claim for loss of earnings, medical and travel expenses as well as the cost of additional care.

With respect to our clients we provide home visits and an after hours service.  

From a timeframe perspective you have 3 years in which to lodge a claim however we would suggest, if you feel you want to proceed, that we commence your medical negligence claim sooner rather than later.

If you'd like an informal chat about your circumstances please either call us on 0800 567 7272 or complete the Enquiry form on the right and we'll call you back.

From our Stourport and Halesowen offices we provide a service covering all areas of Birmingham.
