Medical Negligence



The firm understands and appreciates that the area of medical negligence is growing at a rapid pace.

With more people turning to specialised medical practitioners in private hospitals and other health care professionals to be treated, and with the general public becoming more aware of their rights, claims of medical malpractice is on the rise.

There are various reasons why malpractice arises and we are able to assist medical bodies, hospitals, private medical practitioners and private clients in assessing the issues that have arisen.

Our experience and success rate shows that we are one of the market leaders in this area and have successfully represented our clients in court proceedings right from the Sessions Court up to the Federal Court.

We are able to represent medical practitioners at various levels of proceedings and have the privilege of obtaining expert opinions and advice from other highly respected medical professionals. These experts regularly attend as expert witnesses and assist as part of the defence team.

As part of our services, we are also able to assist with regulatory bodies and private medical practitioners over their practice standards and methods in order to avoid malpractice claims.
