Overview

Expert lawyers for medical consent compensation claims

What is informed consent?

Informed consent is a patient’s legal right to be involved in decisions about their treatment. Doctors must tell them what their diagnosis is, the prognosis without treatment, the consequences and the risks. If something goes wrong, and the patient hasn’t been properly informed, this can be grounds for a medical negligence claim.

Finding out what went wrong

Our solicitors have a long track record of helping clients with medical consent compensation claims, and will give you a knowledgeable assessment of whether your case has a chance of success. A claim can help you find out what went wrong and who is responsible.

Compensation for loss of earnings

A financial settlement can provide compensation to help you deal with any ongoing issues resulting from the treatment, such as day-to-day care or further surgical procedures. It can also offset any loss of earnings resulting from mistakes in your medical treatment.

How a compensation claim can help
