medical negligence

We all place a huge amount of trust in medical professionals however occasionally things can go wrong. From misdiagnosis or the failure of medical professionals to treat an injury adequately, you could be left seriously injured, angry and bewildered. You can claim damages under common law under many different scenarios, for example:

  • Misdiagnosis or the diagnosis of a condition in a timely fashion
  • Failure to adequately monitor your condition

  • Failure to adequately advise you of any associated risks
  • Failure to effectively report on your condition
  • Failure to follow-up test results
