Medical Negligence Group Claims

If you or a loved one has suffered medical negligence that has similarly affected other people, we could help you make a compensation claim. Examples of this may include:

• Negligent or unnecessary surgery
• Cancer misdiagnosis
• Unsuitable medication
• GP negligence

Our expert medical negligence team has extensive experience bringing group claims. We have recently started to investigate claims relating to the following surgeons, and if you or a family member have concerns about the treatment you have received, please contact us for advice.

• Dr Stohr - orthopaedic surgeon at Addenbrooke, Cambridge
• Dr Iuliu Stan, Royal Cornwall Hospital
• Mr Arunkalaivanan

We're also investigating claims arising from higher than expected baby death rates at the Countess of Chester Hospital, in respect of which there is an ongoing criminal investigation, Spire Healthcare, Shrewsbury-Telford NHS Trust, Leeds Maternity and The Royal Sussex County hospital in Brighton. 

We deal with cases arising from NHS treatment and private treatment, including where patients have received NHS treatment at a private hospital. The law in this area can be complicated in terms of establishing who is responsible if things go wrong. We can help to simplify matters by giving clear and straightforward advice about your options. 

We also have experience of bringing claims against organisations, such as the Ministry of Defence, who put the health of many servicemen and women at risk with the negligent administration of Lariam/Mefloquine. 

Making a group claim for medical negligence can help build a stronger case and ensure you get the right level of compensation. If you’ve lost a loved one because of medical negligence, we can help you bring a claim on their behalf, and support you through the inquest process to get you the answers you need. 

There is often an agreed scheme in place to deal with group claims, especially when a claim involves the NHS. This means it’s essential to have input from specialist solicitors at an early stage, to advise you on how to proceed, work with any other solicitors involved, and ensure you are getting the best compensation package possible. 

Our team has the expertise you need to get the support and compensation you deserve. We are consistently ranked as the leading medical negligence firm in the UK by the independent legal guides Chambers & Partners and Legal 500, and many of our team are recognised as leading experts in their field. 

Medical negligence can be devastating, but we are here to help. Call us today to find out about making a group claim – or use our online form and one of our friendly team will call you back.
