We are a recognised medical negligence practice and member of Action against Medical Accidents (AVMA). We also have offices in Newcastle, Cramlington, Ashington and Sunderland and offers medical negligence advice and services to people across the North East and beyond.

We know this complex area of law can be particularly emotive, which is why we guarantee that all cases are conducted with the appropriate knowledge and empathy to ensure the best results for you.

It is not just about your solicitors having the requisite experience, it is essential that the right experts are instructed to ensure a positive outcome. Owing to our presence in the legal field we have, over the years, developed relationships with medical experts, care experts, and barristers to ensure the best results for our clients.
