Previous Cases
$23 million settlement in an international cerebral palsy claim for a boy who suffered kernicterus brain damage from untreated jaundice in the days following his birth. Our client’s compensation reflected the cost of meeting his needs in the USA, where he now lives. During the claim, interim payments of £1,350,000 helped meet his urgent needs.
£21 million settlement for a severely disabled teenager whose cerebral palsy was caused by HIE from lack of oxygen to his brain during negligent delays in his delivery. A £250,000 interim payment was secured to meet his urgent needs whilst we pursued his claim.
£6.4 million compensation for a young woman who needed Lisfranc (through-foot) amputations after ambulance paramedics failed to recognise that she had symptoms of meningitis and take her to hospital for antibiotic treatment. We agreed to help her make a claim after her previous solicitors had rejected the case, which they said would not succeed.
£950,000 settlement for a man with diabetic neuropathy who developed Charcot foot and required a below knee amputation after delayed diagnosis and treatment of a minor foot injury. GP surgery staff and a hospital x-ray department missed multiple opportunities to refer him for specialist foot care or diagnose his condition.
£1.5million lump sum plus lifelong payments of £225,000pa for a man who was left paralysed with tetraplegia after falling from the hospital chair where he was left to sleep after unnecessary spinal surgery. An interim payment of £300,000 met his urgent needs whilst the case continued.
£1.33 million settlement for a man who was left with disability from cauda equina syndrome (CES) when his surgical treatment was delayed after an out-of-hours GP failed to refer him immediately to hospital.
£800,000 settlement for a man left with bowel and bladder damage, impaired mobility and sexual dysfunction after his GP failed to recognise signs of cauda equina syndrome (CES) and refer him for emergency treatment.
£2 million settlement for a woman who was left with 50% respiratory disability after nearly a four-year delay in diagnosis and treatment of tuberculosis (TB).
£800,000 for a client left with pain, bowel and bladder and sexual dysfunction, and a psychological injury after negligent treatment for cervical smear tests showing CIN3 (pre-cancerous cells) led to her developing cervical cancer. Interim payments of £40,000 helped ease our client’s financial hardship during the claim. Several previous solicitors had refused to take on our client’s case.
