Get the Compensation You Deserve

A delay or misdiagnosis claim seeks compensation for harm caused by a failure to correctly identify or promptly treat a medical condition. This can include:

  • Failure to investigate symptoms properly

  • Failure to refer for scans, blood tests or specialist opinions

  • Delays in acting on abnormal test results

  • Misreporting X-rays, scans or biopsies

  • Failure to recognise “red flag” symptoms

  • Delayed diagnosis of cancer, heart conditions, infections or fractures

  • Medication and prescribing errors

  • Failure to monitor patients appropriately after surgery

Diagnostic errors can occur across all areas of healthcare. A fracture may be mistaken for a sprain, ovarian cancer symptoms attributed to IBS, or heart disease confused with a respiratory infection. Even a short delay can significantly affect recovery and, in serious cases, lead to avoidable long-term damage.

    Frequently asked questions

    In most cases, you have three years from the date of injury or from when you became aware that negligence may have occurred. There are exceptions for children and individuals lacking mental capacity.

    We offer No Win No Fee funding in appropriate cases, meaning you will not pay legal fees if your claim is unsuccessful. We will explain all funding options clearly at the outset.

    Claims often involve cancer, heart disease, stroke, infections, fractures, neurological conditions and internal injuries. However, a claim can arise from any condition where a delayed or incorrect diagnosis caused unnecessary harm.

    Medical records, witness statements, and expert opinions are typically required. We will help gather everything needed to support your claim.
