Clinical Negligence

Dominic acts for both claimants and defendants in a broad range of clinical negligence claims.

Against the background of having been led by Lizanne Gumbel KC in achieving a successful settlement for hundreds of claimants against a consultant breast surgeon (Mr Ian Paterson) for negligent treatment spanning a decade given to both NHS and private patients, Dominic has developed a particular expertise in cases involving private healthcare providers and informed consent claims. To date he has been instructed in over 100 mesh claims being brought against Ian Lindsey/ Tony Dixon and Nuffield/ Spire Health, as well as numerous other cases involving these issues in other clinical contexts.

He has particular expertise in claims involving:

  • Cerebral palsy and other catastrophic birth related injuries
  • Psychiatric injury (both primary and secondary victims)
  • Orthopaedic injuries (in particular delayed diagnosis and negligent treatment of fractures)
  • Delayed diagnosis and treatment of cancer
  • Patients detained in prison or under the mental health act
  • Injuries to reproductive organs and ‘loss of a chance’ claims
  • Cauda equina
  • Tropical diseases
  • Adverse medication reaction
