Medical Negligence Claims

Cancer Claims and Compensation

Claim for cancer negligence

Our team of solicitors are experts in helping victims of cancer negligence. If you think you have a claim for cancer misdiagnosis, insufficient treatment, delayed diagnosis or medication errors then contact our specialist team today.

At Browell Smith & Co, we have a team of compassionate solicitors who will understand your situation and guide you through the whole claims process ensuring you’re supported at every stage.

Almost half (45.5%) of all cancer cases were diagnosed at stage 3 & 4 (out of those with a known stage at diagnosis) in England in 2018 (that’s more than 118,000 cases) – according to Cancer Research. Diagnosing cancer as early as possible is essential as it’s more likely to be treated successfully, however unfortunately there are instances where the diagnosis is delayed for a number of reasons which are out of your control, or the type of cancer has been misdiagnosed. We often work with families who have sadly lost a relative to cancer.

Some types of cancer claims we can help with:

  • Breast Cancer
  • Skin Cancer
  • Lung Cancer
  • Bowel Cancer
  • Prostate Cancer
  • Cervical Cancer

No Win No Fee Cancer Compensation

A ‘No Win-No Fee’ agreement is an arrangement between solicitor and client which means that if your compensation case is not successful we are not paid for the work undertaken and we will not look to you for our legal fees.
