Clinical Negligence | UK

Northern Ireland

Clinical Negligence covers allegations of negligent acts committed by professionals working in the healthcare or pharmaceutical sectors. These cases usually arise from accusations that the defendants did not follow accepted industry practices, leading to the claimant’s injury or death. 

Our coverage is divided between those who represent the defendants or their employers and those who bring claims on behalf of individuals seeking compensation for their injuries.
