Yes. You must make a compensation claim within three years of the date of the medical negligence, or three years from when you became aware of a problem linked with the treatment you received.
Most medical negligence claims are dealt with on a No Win, No Fee basis, also known as a Conditional Fee Agreement. This means you only pay our legal fees if your claim is successful and there’s no financial risk.
