How long do you have to make a claim?
In most cases you have 3 years to make a claim for medical negligence. This time period starts to run from the date on which the negligent act or omission occurred. However in cases of medical negligence it is possible to extend this period further if you can show that your “knowledge” of the negligent act became apparent at a later date. If the injured party was under 18 at the time the negligence was committed, they will have until their 21st birthday to bring a claim.

But what is medical negligence, and what do you do if things have gone wrong?
Medical negligence is also known as clinical negligence, and it is the term used to describe a breach of duty of care by a doctor, nurse, or other healthcare professional that leads to harm that could have been avoided.
A breach of duty is simply where the standard of care you received fell below what would be expected from a reasonably competent and skilled specialist. If this breach caused you harm then subject to medical proof, you may be able to claim compensation.
