Can I sue the NHS for negligence?

No win no fee NHS negligence solicitors

The NHS of course has its own complaints procedure. General complaints are dealt with NHS Patient Advice & Liaison Service also known as PALS. Their established procedures have been designed to resolve any issues you may have with your NHS treatment and medical care efficiently and quickly. Faults will be identified and recommendations should be made to put them right.

It is worth noting that PALS however is not responsible for taking any action in discipline of any practitioners or involved in decision making when making awards for medical negligence compensation claims.

When you might have a claim

Injury, continuous pain or loss due to the act of a practitioner or general lack of care at the NHS is an entirely different matter. You might very well have a claim. The duty of care might have been breached meaning the health care professional/s did not provide the expected level of care. If you believe you deserve compensation you may have a medical negligence claim.

How to start your claim

After contacting us we look into a few things

1. Was the medical practitioner/s involved in your treatment at fault to the extent that your treatment & level of service fell below the expected level recognised by law?
2. Did you receive actual harm or injury as a direct result of that lack of care or negligent treatment?
3. Although there are some exceptions to the rule you must bring a case to claim within (3 Years) 36 months from the time of the incident, when the harm occurred or the ‘date of knowledge’. Our solicitors can still advise in situations that have fallen beyond the 36 month limitation. Start your claim here.
