We all hope for a positive outcome from healthcare but sometimes mistakes or neglect by medical professionals do occur and can cause life changing injuries or disability, leaving you facing a future of uncertainty. This is the time to remember you are not alone.
At Tees, we have teams of experienced legal professionals who will start by simply listening.
Our medical negligence lawyers will guide you from your initial consultation through to achieving resolution whether through mediation, settlement or court proceedings. We focus on building a strong case based on medical records, expert testimony, and full assessment of your losses. We’ll aim to help you achieve what you need in terms of compensation and an admission of fault from the doctor and/or hospital concerned.
Medical negligence occurs when substandard healthcare causes or worsens an injury or condition. It is sometimes called clinical negligence or medical malpractice.
If you or your child were operated on by Dr Stohr at Addenbrooke’s, we can help assess whether you have a valid claim for compensation.
To prove clinical negligence, you need to show that a healthcare professional, or a healthcare system, has failed in their care towards you and that you have experienced damage or loss. This can be physical or psychological injury or financial loss.
We could not fault the service provided by the entire team at Tees. They were responsive, supportive, and extremely professional from start to finish. The successful outcome and the justice achieved were exactly what we had hoped for.
