Clinical Negligence
 
FURTHER INFO
Legal Services Commission

Law Society
 
As well as being known for their expertise in pursuing personal injury claims solicitors at Bridge McFarland have also gained a reputation in the region and indeed throughout the country in relation to claims arising as a consequence of poor or inadequate medical treatment.

Partner Ian Sprakes heads up the Medical Negligence team for our Lincoln, Grimsby and Hull group of offices. Partner Stephen Lambert is head of the firm's Clinical Negligence and Personal Injury departments at our Louth, Skegness and Market Rasen group of offices.

Ian has many years experience in this complex area of law. He is a member of the Law Society’s Clinical Negligence and Personal Injury Panels and the firm is franchised by the Legal Services Commission (who administer Legal Aid) to carry out clinical negligence work. Ian has specialised in Orthopaedics, GP negligence, mis-diagnosis of cancer, and Obstetric and Gynaecological cases, including particular birth trauma.

Stephen also has many years experience of all types of clinical negligence cases including dental negligence. He has acted in claims involving multi-million pound damages and undertakes many cases on referral from other solicitors.

They are assisted by a team who are experienced in handling the sensitive issues which are usually associated with medical claims. They are always pleased to talk confidentially and without obligation to those who may the victims of bad medical treatment and advise whether or not a viable claim exists. Free first interviews are available at all Bridge McFarland’s offices.

Often clients who consider that they may be able to claim compensation for their losses are concerned about how to fund their case. When the firm is instructed in connection with a potential claim this issue is one of the first to be addressed. Depending upon both the nature of the claim and the clients circumstances a number of options will probably be available. These are always discussed and considered in detail. Bridge McFarland offer ‘no win no fee’ arrangements as well as acting for clients who have the benefit of either legal aid or legal expense insurance

Very often cases of this nature can be settled by negotiation without court proceedings having to be commenced. This is always an attractive option which has more chance of success if cases are handled thoroughly and in accordance with the established pre-action protocols. Bridge McFarland place great emphasis on trying, at least in the first instance, to deal with matters in this way. However, if no fair settlement can be reached a case will be taken to trial if the evidence and expert advice suggests that this is required.
