No amount of money can undo negligence, however it can allow you to live the best quality of life possible.

What qualifies as negligent care?

Anyone that suffers negligent care is often left devastated and confused as to how this could have happened. With gynaecological cases, this can often leave women with severe pelvic pain, urinary incontinence, unable to have sexual intercourse, and severe abdominal pain.

More often than not, this happens due to a lack of information from the medical professionals, failing to make the patient aware of all of the risks involved. You may sign a consent form, however you cannot give your full consent if you haven’t been made aware of all of the risks associated.

If something has gone wrong during a gynaecological procedure, contact our team of solicitors, who understand the sensitivity of this situation whilst having expert knowledge of these types of cases.

We understand that these topics can be difficult to discuss, however be rest assured that we will handle your claim with care and knowledge.
