Infective Endocarditis Compensation Claims
If you or a loved one are struggling with the impact of negligent medical care of infective endocarditis, you may be wondering when and how to make a claim for compensation.
When to make a claim for compensation
Delayed medical management of infective endocarditis can be life-changing and, if you are facing a lifetime of unanticipated and debilitating symptoms due to the negligence of your medical professionals, you may be entitled to claim compensation.
Negligent care may occur in the process of diagnosis by failing to recognise or suspect symptoms, or in failing to make a timely referral to specialist care. A delay in reporting test results or a delay in treatment may also be regarded as negligent.
Patients who suffer due to substandard medical care are legally entitled to claim compensation for the consequences.
If you are considering making a claim, bear in mind that your claim will need to be issued with a court within three years of the date of the alleged negligence.
Prior to this deadline, your specialist solicitor will need to carry out a thorough investigation into the quality of your medical care and ascertain whether or not you have, in fact, been the victim of negligence.
This process requires an analysis of your medical records and can be time-consuming so, if you think you may have a claim, contact a legal specialist at the earliest possible moment.
How to make a claim
If you think you may have a claim, contact a specialist solicitor for legal advice.
They will be able to obtain your medical records and will engage the services of appropriate medical experts in the necessary fields who will assess the quality of your care.
You will also need to produce a witness statement so it is advisable to try to recall as accurately as possible what occurred to you and when. You may find it helpful to make a few notes before you speak to a specialist solicitor.
If you appear to have been a victim of negligent care, your solicitor will work with you to identify all your financial losses insofar as they have been caused by the negligence.
