Medical Negligence
Medical negligence, also called clinical negligence, is when a
mistake made by a healthcare professional such as a doctor, nurse
or midwife, causes serious physical or psychological damage to the
patient.
The mistake could be that the wrong treatment was given for a
patient's ailment, or even that no treatment was given. The team of
medical negligence solicitors at O'Neill Morgan have significant
experience of all types of clinical negligence claims, from a
surgeon operating on the wrong leg to a GP prescribing the wrong
medication.
When you contact O'Neill Morgan we will analyse your case,
obtain copies of your medical records and, where appropriate, we
will obtain independent medical advice on your case. However, we
will never incur any charges without your permission. From the
outset, we will be able to provide an accurate forecast of your
chance of success.
Compensation claimed in cases of clinical negligence can be used
to pay for medical fees and rehabilitation costs, and is your legal
right if you have been severely injured as a result of negligence
on the part of a doctor, nurse or midwife.
