Making a Professional Negligence Claim

Anyone wanting to make a professional negligence claim can use the services of
professional negligence solicitors. If someone believes the professional he hired acted
negligently then he should contact a specialist lawyer. The importance of hiring professional
negligence lawyers is that they are experienced in dealing with such cases. The key to
making a professional negligence claim is proving that the professional was negligent in his
dealings and that the negligence left the client at a financial loss.
But before going to all the trouble of finding legal representation it is very important to know
what professional negligence is.
Negligence should never be confused with disappointment. A professional may provide a
service which disappoints the client, but that does not mean that he or she has been
negligent. What would be termed as negligence is where the professional in question has
provided a service that does not meet the high standards expected and where the client has
suffered a loss.
The ‘loss’ is more often than not financial, but it can also include such things as the client’s
health or property. So if there is evidence of negligence and loss there may be a strong case
for a professional negligence claim.
Having suffered professional negligence many people want to seek compensation. It is
important to understand the process when making a professional negligence claim.
Negligence can apply across the full range of professionals including doctors, dentists,
surveyors and accountants. Anyone believing they have suffered a loss because of
negligence should consider negligence litigation. And the people to see when making such
claims are professional negligence solicitors.
There are several reasons why those considering pursuing negligence claims should involve
professional negligence solicitors. These cases are often complex and it is always better to
use solicitors who are experienced in dealing with them., Particularly when suing solicitors,
the defendant is bound to have their own legal representation, so it is vital that the party who
insists he has been dealt with negligently has his own representation. And most importantly
the solicitor will be able to advise his client if he really does have a case against a negligent
professional.
Professional negligence solicitors determine the strength of the case on the available
evidence. Does the evidence provided by the client prove the service he was provided with
was negligent? Has the client suffered a loss? If there is a case to answer the solicitor may
then seek advice from other independent experts in a bid to build the case. Their evidence
may also be used should the case reach the courts.
Should the professional negligence case be compelling the case may not even have to go to
a court hearing. The professional being claimed against may agree to settle. However, if he
decides to contest the action the case will move to the courtroom. It will be there that the
professional negligence solicitor will provide the evidence which hopefully helps the client win
the compensation they deserve.
