Medical Negligence Solicitor for Castleisland
When medical care goes wrong, the effects can be life-changing. We give careful, confidential advice on medical negligence claims.
Medical negligence and misadventure
Medical negligence happens when care falls below the accepted standard and causes harm. These claims are complex and need expert evidence, so it is important to get advice early.
Examples of claims
- Misdiagnosis or delay in diagnosis
- Errors during surgery or treatment
- Wrong medication or dosage
- Injuries during childbirth
- Dental negligence
How the process works
Unlike most injury claims, medical negligence cases are not assessed by the Injuries Resolution Board and proceed through the courts. We obtain your records, instruct independent medical experts and advise you honestly on the strength of your case.
In contentious business, a solicitor may not calculate fees or other charges as a percentage or proportion of any award or settlement.
