Law Pod UK Ep. 198: Small Data: damage, distress and the development of a new type of claim - May 2024
Clinical Negligence
Jasper is frequently instructed in clinical negligence cases for claimants and defendants, and regularly appears in interlocutory hearings in the high court and county court, as well as advising on liability and quantum and representing parties at settlement negotiations.
Jasper has experience across a wide range of medical issues, including:
- Mental health (inpatient and in the community), including cases resulting in suicide
- Informed consent
- Gynaecological and obstetric issues
- Delayed diagnoses
- Dentistry
- Ophthalmology
- Issues with medical equipment, including product liability
- Loss of reproductive capability
- Treatment provided in care homes
- Treatment provided in prison
- Claims for psychiatric harm including the exacerbation of pre-existing mental health conditions
Jasper was seconded for six months to a leading healthcare law firm where he specialised in inquests, which provided regular experience of investigating complex medical issues in conference with clinicians and of questioning clinicians giving live evidence. He is comfortable acting as both inquest and claim counsel for families and other parties.
Jasper is the co-author (with Philip Havers KC) of the chapter on breach of duty in the forthcoming 5th edition of Principles of Medical Law (OUP, Laing & McHale eds.)
As a result of his training in commercial law, Jasper is also comfortable with cases involving private healthcare providers containing contractual elements.
Jasper is a regular contributor to the Quarterly Medical Law Review.
