Medical Negligence / Professional Negligence

Medical Negligence

Medical Doctors, Medical Consultants, Surgeons, Dentists and others who look after the health and wellbeing of people owe their patients the highest possible Duty Of Care. Medical Negligence happens when MEDICAL PRACTITIONERS fail their patients in that duty, by failing to diagnose illnesses or conditions, making wrong diagnoses, failing to prescribe correct medication, prescribing incorrect medication, making mistakes during operations or other medical procedures such as giving birth, hip or other joint replacements. Medical negligence can result in death, physical or psychological injury, damage, disability or impairment. It can have long or short term consequences.   We have dealt with many compensation claims arising from medical negligence. We have access to expert Doctors and Consultants in all areas of medicine who are prepared to advise in cases where Medical Negligence may have occurred. If you think you have been the victim of Medical Negligence please contact us at Steen O Reilly where we will be happy to advise you on a confidential basis.
The question of legal fees will be explained fully at our first meeting WHICH, OF COURSE, WILL BE FREE OF CHARGE. Whatever fees are charged at the end of a case will be based on the work done AND NOT ON A PRECENTAGE BASIS.

Professional Negligence

As in Medicine every Professional, whether they are Solicitors, Engineers, Architects, Accountants, Stockbrokers, Financial Advisers or others who have expertise in any field have a duty to use their particular professional qualification and expertise to serve their clients in the best possible manner. Thankfully, the vast majority of dealings people have with such Professional Advisers have a successful outcome and many people have lifelong relationships with their Professional Advisers. Unfortunately there are times when the advice or service given by Professionals is wrong, inadequate, incomplete, or inappropriate and results in financial or other loss or damage. This can amount to Professional Negligence and in such cases the victim can seek damages by way of compensation for the loss suffered as a result of the Professional Negligence. Most professionals are required to have Professional Indemnity Insurance Cover. If you think that you have been the victim of Professional Negligence of any kind please contact us at Steen O Reilly. We will be happy to advise you on a confidential basis.
