Took the time to listen to my specific case and were honest enough to give their opinion on the potential outcome(s).
We know that claims for medical negligence are becoming increasingly common both in private practice and the NHS. If you are a consultant doctor, surgeon, or a practicing GP, and are facing a dispute with a patient then you will need legal representation. Our specialist defence team of doctor’s lawyers have a diverse range of expertise, which allows Summerfield Browne to robustly advise on, defend and/ or settle such claim. If a patient has accused you of negligence then you should be aware of the law, the merits of any claim against you, and the most prudent strategy to effectively deal with, and resolve the issue, as soon as possible.
For any successful negligence claim, the three stages that any claim must surpass are establishing: (i) a duty of care, and (ii) a breach of that duty, and (iii) a direct causational link. Our specialist team of medical professional solicitors will take the time to listen to you, and gather as much evidence as possible to evaluate your defence, and advise on the most appropriate strategies for dealing with any such claim.
Our team of medical lawyers are also able to advise on doctors’ and surgeons’ defence of claims involving false allegations made by a patient. There have been several well publicised cases of false allegations, and our medical defence team know that such unfounded allegations if allowed to prevail, can have catastrophic repercussions, both for your reputation as a trusted medical professional, and also for your personal life.
That’s why we will never allow you to waste your time or money, and will aim to reach a settlement as early in the litigation process as possible. Our team of legal defence lawyers for doctors and surgeons, will always adhere to strict confidentiality rules, and keep you updated throughout the entire process.
