Surgery compensation claims are a common type of medical negligence claim that we take forward, and we understand that the harm victims can suffer from can be severe.
When a mistake takes place during surgery, it can be a worrying thing to have to deal with. What will happen next? Will there be more complications? Will more surgery be needed? Not only is there the worry that’s caused, but any additional suffering patients endure isn’t nice to have to experience.

It’s possible to be able to make a claim for medical negligence compensation that arises from waiting for an ambulance where this has led to suffering and loss.
This is an important topic to cover, especially when we’re facing longer waits across the NHS in general. Although needing to wait for emergency transport in itself doesn’t mean you’re entitled to receive compensation, there are times when a case can be made. In such times, a case may be vital as some form of justice for the patient, especially when severe injury and losses have occurred.
We may be able to offer No Win, No Fee representation for cases of this nature. Patients must be allowed some form of justice for what they have to go through.

As well as needing to talk about our mental health, we also need to make sure that we talk about, and address, mental health negligence claims.
Mental health has never been more prevalent than it this day and age. It’s not the misunderstood and sometimes even taboo topic that it used to be. With World Mental Health Day passing last week, we wanted to briefly talk about the issues surrounding diagnosis and treatment, and how they tie in with claims for compensation.
In the same way that a lack of treatment or a lack of a diagnosis for a physical ailment can leave patients suffering more, and suffering worse, the same can be said about our mental health as well.
If you need to claim compensation for hip replacement surgery that has gone wrong, we can help you as expert medical negligence solicitors.

There have been some worrying numbers surrounding the volumes of so-called NHS ‘never events’ in recent times, and some of the instances are shocking.
NHS ‘never events’ are essentially serious errors and mistakes that should never happen because they should be completely preventable. They include things like the wrong body parts being operated on or removed, or the wrong areas inside the body being operated on. They also include incorrect surgeries and tools being left inside patients after procedures.
Recent data has suggested that there has been a worrying number of the so-called ‘never events’, which is a cause for concern.
It’s important to make a claim for delayed diagnosis compensation if you have suffered complications or suffered for longer due to delays.
And with recent studies suggesting that it’s getting even harder to access quick GP appointments due to funding constraints, we’re concerned that more victims of a delayed diagnosis may need help.
When a delay that’s caused by a slow diagnosis or an incorrect diagnosis occurs, you can be eligible to make a claim for medical negligence compensation.
As worrying and as sensitive as the topic may be, we simply have to talk about cancer misdiagnosis compensation claims because they do happen.

Medical negligence claims for children is never a nice thing to think about, but when a child has suffered due to an error, action for justice can be important.
It’s possible to bring a claim for medical negligence compensation for a child. Generally speaking, in England and Wales, persons under the age of 18 are unable to bring claims themselves. They can either wait until their 18th birthday to bring a claim, or someone can initiate a case on their behalf.
Realistically, it’s better to make a claim sooner rather than later, so the second option should be the one to go for. Here’s a little advice about how you can bring a claim on behalf of a child.
