Overview

Compensation and support for cancer misdiagnosis

Have you been affected by late diagnosis?

Cancer needs to be caught early to stand the best chance of successful treatment. It can be hard to spot, but there are various signs and symptoms which doctors should investigate quickly. Delayed diagnosis, or misdiagnosis, can have devastating consequences.

Get legal help for sub-standard treatment

If you think your cancer diagnosis or treatment has been sub-standard, get in touch with our medical negligence solicitors to find out whether you may be entitled to compensation, and if so, what steps to take to begin your claim.

Compensation and closure

Our legal experts will listen sympathetically, advising and supporting you through every stage of your claim. A successful claim won’t turn the clock back, but it will help you understand what went wrong with your treatment and could provide compensation to help you cope with your illness.

We handle claims for cancer patients involving:

  • misdiagnosis
  • delayed diagnosis

  • delayed referral to a specialist or the wrong specialist 

  • delayed investigation following tests

  • misinterpretation of a biopsy

  • misinterpretation of a scan

  • misinterpretation of a smear

  • delayed treatment or failure to provide the correct treatment.
