critically important. Qualities to look for in a good solicitor are
specialization in clinical negligence, preferably certified, (look for
membership in the Solicitors Regulation Authority's Panel of Clinical
Negligence Specialists or membership in the Solicitors Regulation
Authority's Clinical Negligence Accreditation Scheme, for example),
someone who can correctly identify the real issues of a case and who has a
staff that can support that effort, and someone who can work the funding
arrangements on your behalf so that your costs are kept as low as
possible.
It helps if the solicitor and the firm they might be associated with are
familiar with all types of cases, from birth injury to misdiagnosis,
surgical malfeasance, and general negligence. The field is very broad, and
the law is comprehensive, with many parts to be studied. Choose a
solicitor that has worked claims in areas similar to yours. There will be
a difference in how a case is constructed for a missed fracture vs. a
birth injury, and you'll want the representation to most closely reflect
your complaint. A burgeoning area right now is in misdiagnosed cancer
cases, for which your solicitor should be up on the latest coming out of
the medical world on diagnosis, cancer markers, and related areas, and
whose specialists should know the latest technology used in the hospitals
and clinics.
Whether your claim results from negligence in the surgery bay (like
leaving a swab inside a patient) or missing a malignant skin cancer, it
pays to get the best solicitor you can, from a firm which has the
experience to follow through. The UK is blessed with an abundance, not
only of good doctors and nurses, who on the main are not negligent, but of
good solicitors who can protect you should the worst occur. Cases of
clinical negligence are not frivolous. They usually represent
life-changing events. To make sure you can cope after the incident, and
have enough money to survive in reduced condition, solicitors are
absolutely necessary to work for you. They can evaluate how much you will
need to live the rest of your life and make sure that just compensation is
rendered.
