If you are in any doubt about your right to claim for medical or dental negligence in a malpractice suit please contact us without obligation as we are No Win No Fee Medical & Dental negligence lawyers.
We accept instructions in medical and dental negligence cases. This may involve:
- a Public or Private Hospital malpractice
- a General Practitioner or family doctor malpractice
- a Specialist
- a Surgeon
- and even Physiotherapists and Chiropractors.
This list is not exhaustive. Dental claims for malpractice may also be made against a Dentist, Orthodontist and Prosthodontist.
You may have been a long time patient of, for example, your General Practitioner (GP).
Often our clients have told us they don’t want to sue their Doctor as they have been seeing the Doctor for many years. Medical practitioners are required to carry insurance against these claims and so an insurance company will meet the cost of any payment that you recover.
Suing them in a malpractice lawsuit is not a personal as it may seem. That is why they have the insurance. Everyone can make a mistake, especially when considering a complex system like the human body.
As expert medical negligence lawyers here in Brisbane and Ipswich, our team can advise you.
WHAT SORT OF MEDICAL MALPRACTICE CLAIMS CAN BE MADE?
Whilst these cases are thankfully not common, medical or dental negligence can occur. It might arise out of a number of circumstances including:
- misdiagnosis
- poorly performed surgery
- gross error
- a poorly delivered standard of care
- wrongly prescribed medications
- not advising you of risks of proposed treatment
- wrongful death.

Note that for complex Medical Law claims such as these, you may have to contribute to the upfront cost of the case, even for No Win – No Fee. This is due to the amount of initial investigation needed. We’ll assess and discuss with you any likely additional costs that you have to pay before you agree to work with our malpractice lawyers.
