Medical Negligence

Orthopaedic Negligence Claims

There are close to 5 million surgical admissions each year with trauma and orthopaedic surgery accounting for a substantial proportion of operations. Claims arising from orthopaedic negligence are relatively common, but the consequences of the mistakes can be serious and life-changing.

A broad range of conditions and injuries are treated by orthopaedic doctors, including issues with bones, joints, ligaments, muscles and nerves. When things go wrong, you may be left with long-term problems that impact on your personal life, work and hobbies.

Aegis Legal’s specialist team of clinical negligence solicitors are experienced in handling a wide range of orthopaedic negligence claims. We take the time to listen and fully understand what happened to you, and only consult recognised experts in the field of orthopaedics to ensure we achieve the best possible outcome.

Examples of Orthopaedic Negligence Claims
  • Delayed diagnosis or undiagnosed fractures
  • Errors during joint replacement surgery
  • Post-operative infections
  • Poorly-fitted prosthesis
  • Nerve and tendon damage
  • Wrong site surgery
