RP Crawford Solicitors Limited – Specialist Legal Support When You Need It Most

Injured in a Healthcare Setting? Are you involved in a Serious Adverse Incident Investigation? Turn Investigation into Action.

If you or a loved one has been involved in a Serious Adverse Incident (SAI) in a hospital setting, it’s crucial to not only seek the truth behind what happened but also to ensure your rights and potential for compensation are fully addressed. At RP Crawford Solicitors Limited, we specialise in transforming findings from medical investigations into actionable claims to secure the justice and compensation you deserve.

 

Understanding Serious Adverse Incidents

A Serious Adverse Incident investigation aims to identify the root causes of injuries sustained in medical settings and implement changes to prevent future occurrences. While these investigations are critical for improving healthcare services, they do not address personal compensation for the victims involved.

  • Client-Centric Approach: At RP Crawford, your well-being is our top priority. We tailor our strategies to your specific needs, ensuring a personalised experience.
  • Aggressive Negotiation: We are known for our ruthless negotiation skills, committed to securing the maximum compensation for your injuries and suffering.

 

Don’t let a hospital investigation be the end of the road if you’ve suffered harm. Contact RP Crawford Solicitors Limited today to explore your options for claiming compensation. Our expert team is ready to guide you through every step, turning insights from an SAI into a successful legal strategy.

 

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Serious Adverse Incident? A Serious Adverse Incident refers to an unexpected occurrence within a healthcare setting that results in significant harm to a patient. Investigations are conducted to learn from these events and improve future care.

Can I claim compensation if I’ve been part of an SAI? Yes, if you’ve suffered injuries due to medical negligence during an incident that led to an SAI investigation, you may have grounds for a compensation claim. These claims focus on obtaining recompense for your injuries and losses.

What can compensation cover? Compensation can cover medical expenses, lost wages, rehabilitation costs, as well as pain and suffering. It can also address future financial needs related to ongoing care or diminished earning capacity.

 

How can RP Crawford help?

Our solicitors can help by:

  • Assessing the viability of your compensation claim.
  • Gathering and analysing medical and investigative reports.
  • Working with medical experts to support your case.
  • Negotiating with responsible parties or insurers on your behalf.
