Medical Claims - Clinical Negligence

We are fortunate to have the NHS but sometimes patients suffer injury or medial harm that was avoidable. If you are receiving medical treatment you are probably already in a challenging situation but if the medical treatment that you received fell below an acceptable standard, which caused you injury, or caused your illness or condition to be worse, the effects on you and your family can be life changing and devastating.

Claims arising from medical treatment are also known as clinical disputes, clinical negligence claims, medical negligence claims, claims for medical accidents or hospital negligence claims.

You may be entitled to compensation and John Hodge Solicitors will take you step by step through the entire no win-no fee claims process, with a personal, face to face service that will ensure that the difficult process of a claim from medical treatment is explained, your claim is investigated and if you have received sub-standard care in a hospital or substandard care from a GP and that substandard care has caused you injury, will ensure that you receive the maximum compensation that you deserve.

We provide a FREE No-Obligation Injury Claim Consultation where you can discuss with us your claim, the claim process and funding of your claim without cost to you.

We provide a FREE No- Obligation Injury Claim Consultation where you can discuss with us your claim, the claim process and funding of your claim without cost to you and at which we can assess your case and confirm if we can take it on a no win, no fee basis. If your claim is successful, the success fee is deducted from your compensation, when your compensation is received. The success fee is case dependant. Our success fee in a medical negligence claim is capped at 25% of your compensation for pain, suffering and loss of amenity and past financial losses. We do not deduct any success fee for your claim for future financial losses.

We may advise you to take insurance to support the funding of your claim. Part of the insurance premium is deducted from your compensation in the event your claim is successful when the compensation  is received.  The amount of the premium recovered from your opponent and the amount deducted from your compensation depends upon the type of case and we will advise you if in your claim insurance is recommended and if so what the premium deductions from your compensation will be. Unless your claim is fraudulent or you abandon your claim against our advice you will only pay the success fee and insurance premium.
