Christian Howells

Clinical Negligence

Christian is regularly instructed in claims against dentists, oncologists, abdominal surgeons, orthopaedic surgeons and GPs.  He recently advised and drafted pleadings in a case where negligent abdominal surgery led to the death of a patient and his widow brought a dependency claim on his lost earnings and pension in the sum of almost £400,000.  The claim was successfully compromised.

His healthcare professional regulation practice includes complex, multi-handed misconduct cases including assault on vulnerable adults, allegations of a sexual nature, drug errors contributing to death, neglect contributing to death, theft of drugs, dishonesty and systemic management failure.
