What is clinical negligence?
Clinical negligence or medical negligence refers to a claim against a member of the medical profession such as doctors, general practitioners (GPs), consultants, surgeons, anaesthetists, nurses, midwives, paramedics, psychiatrists, pharmacists, physiotherapists, radiographers and dentists. These claims are often complex and it is important that you have a solicitor who understands your case and who has the expertise in dealing with medical accidents.
