How We Can Help

We will assess your case, provide expert legal advice, and fight for the compensation you deserve. We’re here to support you and explore your options confidentially and professionally.

Our experienced solicitors can assist you with the following types of claims:

  • Misdiagnosis or Delayed Diagnosis: If your GP fails to diagnose a condition in a timely or accurate manner, resulting in harm or worsening of your condition.
  • Prescription Errors: If you have suffered harm due to medication errors such as incorrect dosage or the wrong medication being prescribed.
  • Failure to Refer to a Specialist: If your GP fails to refer you to a specialist when necessary, leading to a delay in diagnosis or treatment.
  • Inadequate Examination or Treatment: If you have received substandard medical care or treatment from your GP, resulting in harm or worsening of your condition.

We will assess your case, provide expert legal advice, and fight for the compensation you deserve. We’re here to support you and explore your options confidentially and professionally.

A claim can be made within three years from the date of the negligence or from the date when the individual became aware of the negligence, whichever is later.  In the case of a child, the claim can be made up until their 21st birthday.

What Do I Need to Prove a GP Negligence Claim?

  1. Duty of Care: Your GP owed you a duty of care as their patient.
  2. Breach of Duty: Your GP breached that duty of care by failing to provide a reasonable standard of care.
  3. Causation: The breach of duty caused or significantly contributed to your injury or the worsening of your condition.
  4. Damages: You suffered harm, injury, or financial loss as a result of the GP’s breach of duty.
  5. Medical Evidence: Medical records, expert opinions, and testimony to establish the breach of duty and the resulting harm.
  6. Documentation: Records of treatments, prescriptions, and any communication with your GP regarding your condition.
  7. Legal Representation: Consultation with a solicitor experienced in medical negligence claims to guide you through the process and represent your interests effectively.

A claim can be made within three years from the date of the negligence or from the date when the individual became aware of the negligence, whichever is later. In the case of a child, the claim can be made up until their 21st birthday.
