Medical Negligence Solicitors in Northampton

When we visit our local GP or hospital, we expect to receive a good standard of care. But unfortunately, this isn’t always the case.

If you’ve developed an illness or were injured due to a medical professional’s negligence, our Northampton-based solicitors could help you access compensation and support.

Our local legal experts are experienced in claims involving:

Hospital negligence

Hospitals have a duty of care towards patients. This means that if you were harmed as a result of substandard medical care, you could have a case for compensation.

This might apply if you developed an infection during your stay, were treated poorly throughout your pregnancy or childbirth, or suffered an injury during a surgical procedure. These are just a few examples, though.

Our medical solicitors in Northampton have handled numerous claims involving hospital negligence. They’ll build a case on your behalf and work to secure the outcome you deserve.

GP negligence

Your GP should do everything they can to help you access the treatment you need – whether this is by prescribing medicine or referring you to a specialist.

If your GP misdiagnosed you or failed to refer you to a specialist, and your condition has worsened as a result, you could have grounds to make a claim on a No Win No Fee basis.

A&E negligence

A&E departments are busy places and things can go wrong. But if you were treated negligently by medical staff and developed an illness or injury as a result, you could be entitled to compensation.

Our solicitors will speak to you about what happened and talk you through the claims process. So you’ll know exactly what to expect at every stage.

Jacqueline Busby, Head of Legal Services at First4Lawyers, has encouraged people to get the justice they're entitled to:

“As a qualified solicitor, I’ve seen the immense impact that medical errors can have on individuals and their families.

“Claiming compensation for medical negligence could be a great help in your recovery. It can cover the cost of any further treatment, medications and any care you might need.

“But making a medical negligence claim isn’t just about seeking compensation. It’s also about holding healthcare providers accountable for their actions and trying to ensure that similar mistakes are not repeated.

“We know the prospect of making a claim can feel daunting, especially at such an emotionally difficult time. But we’re here to help you take the first step towards compensation and support.”
