Misdiagnosis and Delayed Diagnosis

Our Services

Work with Our Medical Negligence Specialists in Leamington Spa and Warwickshire

At Blythe Liggins, we understand the critical importance of an accurate and timely medical diagnosis. When a doctor or healthcare professional negligently misdiagnoses a condition or delays providing a correct diagnosis, the consequences for your health and well-being can be devastating. Our specialist team offers expert legal support across Warwickshire and the UK for harm from negligent misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis of conditions like cancer, stroke or missed fractures.

Navigating a claim for misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis negligence can be complex and emotionally challenging. We provide clear, compassionate and effective legal advice and our considerable experience will ensure you understand your rights and pursue the compensation you deserve.

We believe that your financial position should not prevent you from receiving compensation, so if you have suffered cosmetic surgery negligence and you need support making a claim, we offer initial advice at no cost. If we feel that your claim is likely to be successful, we offer a ‘No Win, No Fee’ agreement so that a lack of funds will never prevent you from making a claim.

You generally have 3 years within which to pursue a claim either from the date of negligence or from the date you first suspected that negligence may have occurred, but time limits vary and so taking early, expert advice is important.
