Any non-fault victims of personal injury are entitled to make a no win no fee claim with our expert solicitors, but if they wish to make a medical negligence claim against a hospital or GP surgery there may be costs involved.
Whereas in most cases professional lawyers can collect all the evidence they need without help, in clinical negligence cases they will need a medical expert's report on the casualty's injuries and the claimant's medical notes, which are unfortunately not free of charge to obtain.
In the event that the other side accepts liability, they may pay these costs, but this means that claimants whose claims are not successful are likely to incur a fee.
In these situations, a potential claimant may find that they have to make the difficult decision of whether to take legal action or not.
For claimants who can afford to pay a fee, the decision may be relatively easy to make, but for those who cannot spare any money, they may find that analysing the impact that the personal injury has had on their lives could help them choose their course of action.
If they have not needed to take any time off work to recover, of only needed a little time away to recuperate, then making a claim may not be worth the potential costs.
However, if an injury has substantially lowered the quality of their life, permanently or temporarily, they may find that the settlement they receive at the end more than covers the cost of getting a medical report and notes to support the claim.
If you are unsure whether to make a claim with us because you are worried that your clinical negligence case may cost you more money than you may receive in damages, contact our legal advisers on 0800 10 757 95 or via live help and they could tell you within minutes whether it is worth bringing the case to the attention of a lawyer.
If we believe that you have a claim, we can find you an expert personal injury solicitor to help you receive the compensation you deserve.
