Notable Cases

The mother was not made aware of the babies difficulties and was left unattended for 11 hours (despite a registrar noting that the baby’s heart beat was critical and that the baby’s presentation was unusual.) The hospital initally denied responsibility but medical evidence reviewed post mortem revealed that the baby was viable and would have survived if an earlier intervention had been made.

The operation was successful but the nerves were damaged and resulted in the client suffering tremendous pain whihc prevented him from working and will do so permanently unless a remedy for the pain can be found.

Claim settled for £625,000.
  • Mrs L attended hospital for an injection into her neck to alleviate painful headaches, unfortunately the injection went into her spine and caused serious injury to the client.
