To help your claim, you will need as much supporting evidence as possible.

2. File receipts – you can also claim for any out-of-pocket costs incurred which could be treatment or travel costs. If you suffer a loss of earnings because of medical negligence, then this is something that your solicitor will also include in your claim.

3. See your doctor – to assess the damage or injury caused to you through medical negligence, make an appointment to see your GP as soon as you can. Whilst your doctor will not provide a negligence report against the Practitioner, they will be able to document your injuries and treatment.
