In standard UK cases of medical negligence, a claim can take between 8 to 12 months. Standard cases, in this instance, relate to ones where the injuries are not particularly serious and where the medical professional or institution accepts liability relatively quickly.
As legal specialists, it is our duty to be transparent and upfront about the process behind making a claim. A medical negligence claim can take upwards of 18 months to settle, dependant on the complexity of the case.
