Question 1

How Can Barratts Birth Injury Solicitors Help?

Accepted Answer

We have already been referred cases through this scheme. The NHSR are keen to ensure that only solicitors, used to acting for clients with cerebral palsy and other neurological conditions, are involved. All too often we are contacted by clients who have spent years with a solicitor who has not handled a medical claim for a birth injury. Sadly, we continue to see the same negligent cause for  brain and birth injury claims, so we hope this scheme will succeed in reducing these injuries.

Question 2

How Does the ENS Work in Practice?

Accepted Answer

In January 2018 we were contacted by a family whose baby was 4 months old and had suffered a brain injury at birth. The Hospital Trust, where he was born, had promptly reported the matter to NHSR under the ENS. Their investigation identified that his injury had occurred due to negligence. They were signposted to an independent specialist solicitor and contacted Julie Hardy. Julie is one of three solicitors in our medical negligence department who are recognised as specialist clinical negligence lawyers on the Law Society's panel. Julie is  also a member of the panel of specialist lawyers admin
