Medical and clinical negligence occurs when healthcare professionals fail to provide the standard of care expected, resulting in avoidable harm, injury, or financial loss. Patients rely on doctors, nurses, pharmacists, and other healthcare providers to act with diligence and skill. When that trust is breached, the consequences can be life-altering. At Aldwych Legal, our professional negligence solicitors Bradford specialise in helping individuals and families pursue justice and compensation for medical errors.
Medical negligence arises when a healthcare provider’s actions fall below the accepted standard of care. This can include misdiagnosis, surgical errors, medication mistakes, delayed treatment, or failure to provide adequate aftercare. Common examples include: incorrect surgical procedures; prescription errors or dispensing the wrong medication; failure to diagnose or misdiagnosis of serious conditions; and inadequate monitoring or follow-up care. Establishing negligence requires demonstrating that the healthcare professional owed a duty of care, breached that duty, and caused measurable harm or loss.
Clinical negligence covers a wide range of healthcare settings, from hospitals and clinics to pharmacies and private practices. Aldwych Legal assists clients in Bradford with claims such as: surgical errors leading to prolonged recovery or permanent injury; mismanaged treatment plans causing further health complications; failure to warn patients of risks associated with procedures; and medication dispensing errors resulting in adverse effects. Our team conducts a thorough investigation, including reviewing medical records, consulting with medical experts, and evaluating the extent of harm caused by the negligence.
Aldwych Legal operates as a legal consultancy, providing strategic advice and case preparation services outside the regulation of the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) and Bar Standards Board (BSB). We work under the Legal Services Act 2007, focusing on unreserved legal activities, and collaborate with regulated solicitors and barristers when reserved legal action is required. Our approach to medical and clinical negligence claims includes: detailed case assessment to determine the strength of your claim; collection of medical records and expert opinions; negotiation with healthcare providers or insurers to achieve fair settlements; and litigation support, coordinating with authorised legal practitioners if court proceedings are necessary.
