Medical Negligence Compensation Claims
Medical Negligence Compensation Claims
Our medical negligence solicitors offer a free consultation for victims of medical malpractice, negligence or accidents.
There are very few firms of solicitors in Northern Ireland who have specialist Medical Negligence Solicitors and before you decide who to bring your case with this should be your first question. Ask have you done this type of case before and be prepared to seek specialist help. Libby Smyth of Reid Black Solicitors has brought successful claims against Antrim Hospital, Causeway Hospital, Altnagelvin and all major Belfast Hospitals. Libby has more than 20 years experience in medical negligence cases and is supported by Reid Blacks firm of litigation solicitors.
Call on 028 9446 6333 or by email claims@reidblack.com to get professional no obligation advice at no cost to you. There are a number of various cost arrangements which can be put in place and if you are under 18 years of age then you are likely to be entitled to Legal Aid for a medical negligence claim as it is the child’s income, which is taken into account as opposed to a parents’ income.
Deciding to make a clinical negligence claim is daunting, because of the issue’s sensitive and controversial nature. We aim to give expert guidance and support throughout the process. Our qualified, experienced solicitors take every possible step to get you a successful outcome, taking account of your individual needs and circumstances.
If you would like advice about substandard medical care, contact us now to speak to one of our qualified solicitors. Your conversation is strictly confidential.
In addition, there is potential that your own home insurance policy may cover you initially in the case or indeed it is possible to take out after the event insurance policies to cover any potential cost involved in bringing a medical negligence action. Please don’t let the potential for the cost of proceeding put you off as there are a number of potential options to discuss in regards to covering the costs of any action.
We cover the following areas but will also happily discuss any other medical negligence action:
