Medical negligence compensation for patient after negligent care
Our client in this claim for medical negligence compensation had suffered a very serious injury to her leg when she fell down the stairs. Although the nature of her injuries would have meant that her recovery would take some time, a series of negligent treatments delayed her recovery for almost two years, causing not only additional unnecessary pain and suffering, but also financial hardship.
