Two Specialist Areas. One Dedicated Team.
Women's health and birth injury claims are among the most complex and emotionally significant in medical negligence law. Our team has the specialist knowledge, the clinical experts, and the personal commitment to handle them properly.
Women’s Health Negligence
Women's health negligence occurs when healthcare professionals fail to meet the expected standard of care in areas specific to or primarily affecting women, including gynaecology, reproductive health, cancer screening, and hormonal conditions. The consequences can be profound: worsening conditions, lost fertility, unnecessary surgery, and devastating delayed diagnoses.
➝ Delayed or missed cancer diagnoses — breast, cervical, ovarian, womb
➝ Endometriosis and adenomyosis mismanagement
➝ Gynaecological surgical errors — hysterectomy, laparoscopy
➝ Vaginal mesh and TVT complications
➝ Fertility and IVF treatment negligence
➝ Failed sterilisation and contraception error
➝ Screening failures — smear tests, mammograms
Signs You May Have a Claim
You do not need certainty before contacting us. If any of the following apply, whether to your own experience or to the care your baby received, a free conversation with one of our specialists is the right first step.
Your symptoms were repeatedly dismissed or misattributed
Something went wrong during your pregnancy, labour, or delivery
Birth Injury Claims
Birth injury claims arise when medical professionals fail to provide the proper standard of care during pregnancy, labour, or delivery and that failure results in harm to the baby, the mother, or both. These are often the most serious and high-value claims in medical negligence law, with lifelong consequences for the families affected.
➝ Cerebral palsy caused by oxygen deprivation at birth
➝ Erb's palsy from nerve damage during delivery
➝ Failure to respond to foetal distress
➝ Delayed or negligent caesarean section
➝ Shoulder dystocia mismanagement
➝ Third and fourth degree perineal tears
➝ Stillbirth and neonatal death where negligence contributed
A cancer was diagnosed later than it should have been
Your baby has a condition that may have been caused by events at birth
Time limits explained: For adult claims, you generally have three years from the date of negligence or when you first became aware of it. For a child's birth injury claim, the three-year period does not begin until they turn 18 - giving parents time, though early action is always strongly advised as evidence can deteriorate. If you are unsure, contact us today.
Compensation is designed to address both the harm you have suffered and its long-term consequences. For birth injury cases in particular, this can cover a child's entire lifetime of care and support.
