Practice Area 04
Medical Negligence & Malpractice
Counsel and representation across Consumer Commissions, Medical Councils and Courts — prosecuting and defending claims of clinical error, institutional liability, informed-consent breach and frivolous malpractice suits.
The Practice
Medical negligence demands a rare combination of legal and medical understanding. The chamber works with medical experts to assess whether the standard of care was breached, and to translate clinical fact into admissible evidence.
We act for patients and for healthcare providers — prosecuting genuine claims of malpractice and defending doctors and institutions against frivolous or exaggerated suits — before consumer commissions, medical councils and the civil and criminal courts.
