Our specialist team of medical negligence solicitors has significant experience of handling a full range of medical negligence cases. Sometimes called clinical negligence, these are cases that arise from poor quality or sub-standard care received in the NHS or private health care sector.
We care passionately about helping people seriously injured through no fault of their own and helping them to get the justice they deserve.
Our dedicated medical negligence solicitors have helped thousands of people who have found themselves in the same position as you. We work with our clients and their families to make sure they get the answers, compensation and the often life-long support they need.
Clinical negligence claims can be fiercely defended, however. So, it's essential that your legal team has real expertise in this field. Our senior lawyers have more than 175 years’ experience of supporting all types of medical negligence claims. It means you can be assured your claim will be handled by one of the leading, specialist clinical negligence law firms in the UK – and benefit from our considerable experience in extremely complex and high-profile cases.
