Clinical Negligence
Supporting Clinical Negligence claims with Expert Medical Analysis
In the UK, we're seeing more and more Clinical Negligence claims every year, especially in cases that involve drug and alcohol misuse.
With so much medical data to process, it's vital for courts and solicitors to work with reliable witnesses, like our panel of medical experts. Together we work to prove or disprove drug and alcohol related claims, typically involving clinical negligence in care homes and rehab centres.
Clinical negligence claims can be complex, so reports vary in length and content, but a customary review of patient records will help the court to appraise:
Liability - did an institution or individual fail in their duty of care?
Extent of damage - what was the impact of clinical negligence on the patient or his / her family?
Care requirements - including supervision and medical expenses
Pain and suffering - what's the mental and physical damage, up to the date of the claim and beyond?
Reduced employment prospects - should the final claim make provision for the patient's loss of earnings?
With so many drug and alcohol related claims for clinical negligence, UK courts will only award damages when a case stands up to expert analysis. That's why courts and solicitors across the UK are turning to Atkinson Lewis.
