We all trust in the medical profession to look after us, but sometimes errors occur or this trust may be misplaced resulting in a medical negligence claim. There may be an incorrect or late diagnosis, errors may occur during surgery or a child may suffer injury due to problems surrounding his/her birth.
Bolt Burdon Kemp are highly recommended by the independent Chambers and Legal 500 guides. Our specialist medical negligence solicitors have successfully represented clients who have sustained injury as a result of sub-standard medical treatment on a wide variety of cases, including claims involving birth injuries, brain damage, cerebral palsy, spinal injuries, orthopaedic injuries and amputations, general surgery, pressure sores, infection, meningitis and other infectious diseases, misdiagnosis and late diagnosis of cancer, eye injuries and visual impairment, hearing loss, gynaecology, urology, dentistry, inquests, inappropriate treatment or failure to provide treatment.

If you or a member of your family have been unfortunate enough to have suffered an injury as a result of substandard medical treatment you have received, our specialist solicitors can assist you in bringing a medical negligence compensation claim against the people and/or organisations responsible. We have obtained strong results in cases against a wide variety of medical professionals and organisations, including NHS hospital trusts, GPs, privately practising doctors and nurses and pharmacists.
We will proactively and sympathetically progress your compensation claim and will listen to your practical concerns. There is a strong emphasis on securing early payments of damages wherever possible, either to fund much needed treatment or to give you a helping hand at a time when due to the limitations imposed by your injuries, you may be experiencing financial difficulties.
Our medical negligence solicitors have consistently achieved excellent results for our clients and remain dedicated to maximising the potential compensation available.
We are panel solicitors for Headway and the Limbless Association. We are also pleased to be on the approved and recommended list of spinal injury solicitors for the Spinal Injury Association.
