Frequently Asked Questions
Medical negligence solicitors: FAQs
How long do I have to make a medical negligence compensation claim?

How much compensation can I claim for medical negligence?
There is no fixed amount. Compensation depends on:
- Severity of the injury (i.e. minor harm vs life changing injuries).
- Financial losses (such as lost earnings and medical expenses).
- Future care needs
Claims can range from hundreds of thousands to millions of pounds. After reviewing your case in more detail, our solicitors will provide an estimate based on your circumstances. We will ensure that every aspect of your life both pre-accident and post-accident is considered so that we can truly understand what you need and what your claim will include.
