Claims For Medical Negligence In Chelmsford Our Team Could Handle

Our panel of expert medical negligence solicitors has many years of experience dealing with personal injury and medical negligence cases throughout the United Kingdom. Below, we take a look at some examples of the most common cases handled by medical negligence solicitors in Chelmsford to give you a better understanding of what could happen in order to start a claim.

Negligent Surgical Care

As a company, we have the ability to give advice when it comes to surgical error cases. Of course, all surgeries have risks, and these should be explained to you beforehand, as some operations are naturally riskier than others. However, this does not mean that your surgery should be risky because of the surgeon making mistakes. Some examples of surgical negligence that could result in a claim could include improper sterilisation of instruments that has caused an infection, as well as organ damage during surgery, surgeries that have not been carried out properly and wrong-site surgery, for example, amputating the wrong limb. These are just a selection of examples.

Negligence Leading To Birth Injuries

Out of all of the cases that our panel of expert medical negligence solicitors handle, there is no denying that birth injuries and claims could be the most difficult to come to terms with. This is especially the case if the baby or the mother suffers lifelong injuries. Some examples of cases that could result in a successful claim could include failing to observe and monitor fetal or maternal distress, not using the correct tools when applying various birth-assisting tools, failing to schedule and carry out an emergency C-section, and much more.

Negligence At A Care Home

Aside from the cases that have already been mentioned, we also have experience with nursing home malpractice claims. Unfortunately, care homes have been at the centre of a number of sad and disturbing stories over the past few years, including historical cases of abuse. If this has happened to someone you love, you may be able to make a claim on his or her behalf. Not all care home negligence cases relate to abuse, though; you could also claim for medication errors or poor hygiene in the care home, for example.

Negligence By A GP

You may also be looking for medical negligence solicitors in Chelmsford to assist with claims for GP medical malpractice. Your GP is arguably one of the important people to see when it comes to ensuring you get the care that you deserve. After all, this might be the first person you see when you are unwell, and so you may rely on your GP to diagnose your symptoms properly. If he or she doesn’t, this could mean you do not get the correct treatment or you do not get it quickly enough.

Negligence By A Dentist

We have also handled a lot of dental malpractice cases. Your dentist could be negligent in a number of different ways. This could happen if your dentist has given you negligent advice or if they have extracted the wrong tooth, for example. Your dentist may have also failed to pick up on symptoms or they may have diagnosed an oral condition incorrectly. If this happens, you could have a basis for a claim. Please do not hesitate to call our panel of expert medical negligence solicitors for more information.

Negligent Cancer Care Or Misdiagnosis

This could cause the cancer to become fatal or it could mean that more intensive treatment could be needed. If your doctor has failed to pick up on cancer symptoms or has not diagnosed cancer correctly, you could be able to make a claim. There are other examples of negligent cancer care too.
