UK Professional Negligence Lawyers & Barristers
When we engage the services of a professional, we expect a competent and efficient service. The vast majority of the time, this is just what we receive. However, there are times when things go wrong. If you have engaged the services of a professional and they have let you down, you may be able to make a claim for compensation. Our barristers & solicitors can help you claim compensation if you have been affected by the negligence of a professional.
Has a Professional Let You Down? Making a Claim for Professional Negligence
In assessing whether or not a professional has acted negligently, the first question to be asked is, “Would the normal, competent professional have acted in this manner?” If the answer is no, you must establish that you have suffered a loss and that the professional in question owed you a ‘duty of care’ – a duty which they did not meet. This duty will be said to exist in cases where you have placed your trust and reliance on the professional, and the professional knew that this was the case.
Suing a Solicitor, Doctor, Dentist or other professional
As you can see, these cases can be complex, and can involve a large degree of interpretation. As such, it’s important you seek expert advice from a professional negligence solicitor before beginning any litigation. Because most professionals are required by their regulatory body to carry professional indemnity insurance, it is often the insurance company who defend the claim. Insurance companies are experienced in such claims and often instruct specialist solicitors, which is why you should do the same.
