Medical Negligence

If you or a loved one have suffered physical or emotional harm as a result of treatment by your general practitioner, in hospital, or from any other member of the medical profession we may be able to help you.

We at Jobling Gowler are specialist dedicated medical negligence solicitors, each with over 15 years of experience in acting for injured patients and their relatives. We understand that when you have suffered physically or emotionally at the hands of the medical profession the decision to approach another professional for advice can be a difficult one. We offer a supportive and caring service tailored to your needs.

We understand that for many clients financial compensation is not always the only goal. We can help you by investigating your case and offering clear advice to ensure that you understand what has happened and, where possible, obtain reassurance about treatment for others in the future.

We pride ourselves on being approachable. From the moment you make contact with us we aim to make you feel comfortable with us as your solicitors and with how your claim will proceed. We will explain the process in plain language. We will ensure that as the case progresses you understand and are comfortable with what is happening and with the action we are taking on your behalf.

We work closely with experienced independent medical experts and barristers to investigate whether there is a claim that gives rise to compensation. Where it does, we work to maximise that claim – again by working closely with independent medical experts and barristers.

We are here to make pursuing a medical negligence claim as smooth as possible and to support you throughout. Our success is evidenced by our clients’ testimonials and by the number of referrals which we receive via existing clients.

If we are successful in recovering compensation for you our support does not end there. We can assist you after you have received compensation by helping you to obtain investment advice and information about protecting your benefits by the creation of a Personal Injury Trust.

We can also advise and assist you in cases where you have lost a loved one. We can offer advice and representation at a Coroner’s Inquest.

We have membership of AvMA and the Law Society's Clinical Negligence Panel. We have a franchise with the Legal Services Commission which is both a mark of quality and means that we can in suitable circumstances offer public funding to investigate and pursue claims. We can offer advice on a variety of types of funding and in suitable cases we are able to offer a conditional fee agreement (also known as a no win, no fee agreement) with delegated insurance backing.

We offer the first consultation free of charge, and are happy in appropriate circumstances to travel to visit clients at home or in hospital.
