Medical Negligence Claims
When you seek medical care, the last thing you expect is for those you trust to help to make your situation worse. However, for an estimated 140,000 Australians, seeking medical care became a nightmare of exacerbated symptoms, improper care, or worse.
These situations are known as medical negligence or medical malpractice.
Claiming Medical Negligence
What is a Medical Negligence?
Medical negligence occurs when a healthcare provider, including GPs, dentists, nurses, pharmacists, technicians, and specialists, fails to treat you with reasonable skill and care, causing you an injury as a result.
What Is It?
Examples of Medical Negligence
While this is not comprehensive, here are several examples of medical negligence:
- Misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis
- Surgical errors
- Anesthesia errors
- Failure to refer a patient to a specialist or for emergency treatment
- Prescription and medication errors
- Defective medical products
- Injuries sustained during birth, including neonatal deaths and stillbirths
- Performing a procedure without the patient’s informed consent
Making A Claim
How Do I Make a Medical Negligence Claim?
Before pursuing a medical negligence claim, you need to know that such claims are exceptionally complex. And proving negligence can be challenging. For these reasons, you should not attempt a medical negligence claim on your own. You will get a much better result by working with a No Fee Injury Lawyer.

What is My Compensation?
The amount of compensation you receive will depend upon several factors, including how severe your injuries were and the degree your life was altered. For example, a botched facelift will generally receive less compensation than removing the wrong foot during a surgery. In turn, they will receive less than someone whose loved one experienced an error that led to death.
Depending on your circumstances, you may be able to claim compensation for:
- Lost wages
- Medical expenses
- Costs of domestic assistance
- Pain and suffering
- Travel expenses
- Future losses if you are unable to do the same work

The road back from an injury caused by medical negligence can be long and difficult. It is highly likely that you will continue to experience a number of physical and psychological issues.
