Misdiagnosis of Ovarian Cancer

Ovarian cancer can often go undetected until it has already reached an advanced stage. This is, in part, due to the subtlety of common early symptoms (bloating, feeling full quickly, abdominal pain, and lost appetite). Such complications mean that the potential repercussions of a misdiagnosis of ovarian cancer can be severe. Early referral, and accurate testing, are crucial in improving patient outcomes.

If you believe that your level of care fell some way short of what you expected, you may have grounds for a claim. We are totally dedicated to supporting you through the process. We utilise our extensive experience in clinical negligence to seek a positive outcome for you and your loved ones.

Supporting You Following an Ovarian Cancer Misdiagnosis

The period following a misdiagnosis of ovarian cancer can be overwhelming. Many people have questions regarding treatment and its potential consequences. If you are facing physical, emotional, and financial strains that require expert support and answers, we can help. Our team not only aims to secure compensation for your suffering and losses, but also to ensure that you receive the right guidance and access to specialist treatment and resources during the investigation.

While we appreciate that no compensation can ever erase the trauma of an ovarian cancer misdiagnosis, we’re here to bridge the financial burden that often comes with a serious misdiagnosis, and give you the confidence to know that your voice has been heard. Together, we can ensure that the mistakes of the past are not repeated and that you are able to finally receive closure.

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.
