Common Reasons to Bring Lung Cancer Claims

If you or a loved one have suffered due to a lung cancer misdiagnosis, you could be entitled to compensation. When early warning signs are overlooked, leading to a delay in diagnosis, it can result in a need for more aggressive treatments, such as chemotherapy. In some circumstances, it may even affect your life expectancy.

When doctors miss vital indications of ill-health, misinterpret tests, or fail to provide proper and immediate treatment, the impact can be devastating and potentially debilitating. Compensation can be used to cover medical expenses, lost income, and other financial burdens — providing you and your family with much-needed clarity and support.

Cancer Claim FAQs

We will discuss your circumstances at a time and place to suit you – in person, at your home or on the telephone. We can request your medical records at the outset free of charge. Once we have reviewed your records we can advise you further and appoint suitable experts to provide their opinion on your potential claim.

Medical negligence claims rarely go to court, with only a small percentage of the more complex cases ending up there. However, in the unlikely event that your case reaches court, we will be by your side throughout the process.

It is important to pursue your claim as quickly as possible due to time limits and to also enable us to help you obtain compensation as soon as possible. This is especially the case in complex cases as the process can be lengthy.

You have to start your claim within 3-years (limitation period) from when the injury occurred or when you first became aware of any potential negligence or injury as a result. However, the time limit only begins when a child reaches 18 years of age.

For someone who lacks capacity to pursue any litigation, the 3-year time period may never start to run although capacity can return or be intermittent.

You should always seek legal advice upon the relevant limitation period in your circumstances.

The aim of compensation is to put you in the financial position you would have been in had it not been for the injury/negligence in question. We recognise that this is sometimes impossible, but we can work with you and the best experts to ensure all your needs are assessed and costed to help you transform your life for the better, and to give you financial security for the future.

We can provide a second opinion free of charge. We have acted for many clients who have been told they don’t have a case, but by looking at the claim in a different way and with our expertise, we have gone on to be successful.
