Who can claim for Cauda Equina Syndrome?

Cauda Equina claims can be made by anyone who has been injured as a result of a substandard level of medical care.

This commonly happens in cases of Cauda Equina Syndrome, as doctors regularly fail to:

• Recognise a patient’s symptoms as being indicative of spinal nerve compression;
• Perform the diagnostic tests that would confirm the presence of spinal nerve compression;
• Perform emergency surgery to decompress the nerves.

All of the aforementioned factors will amount to medical negligence, as a competent doctor should be able to diagnose and treat Cauda Equina Syndrome in a timely fashion. Therefore if you suffered a delay in diagnosis for any reason, in turn causing you to sustain permanent complications, you will be in a position to make a cauda equina claim.

How do I find out if I can make a cauda equina claim?

Medical negligence is a complex area of the law and it can be difficult to know whether or not medical professionals have provided you with a substandard level of care. To find out for certain, the easiest thing to do is to contact us at the Cauda Equina Solicitors as we specialise in cauda equina claims. After a discussion about your treatment and subsequent injuries, we will use our professional knowledge to suggest whether you have been the victim of medical negligence.

Making a cauda equina claim

If we believe the care you received was substandard, we will help you make a claim against the GP or hospital in question. We will handle everything for you, taking care of all the paperwork, correspondence and negotiations. As cauda equina claims specialists, we know that you have suffered enough already up to this point, so we aim to make your life easier now whenever possible.

First we will collate as much evidence as possible, obtaining witness statements and your medical records. Then we will ask a medical expert to examine you and write a report about your injuries. This is a vital piece of evidence as it will verify that you have suffered as a result of medical incompetence. It is a very straightforward process so absolutely nothing for you to worry about. Lastly, we will calculate a sum of compensation for your cauda equina claim that reflects the terrible pain and suffering you have endured and propose this figure to the other side. Even if they do not accept our initial offer, we will ensure that you receive a settlement appropriate for the level of damage you have incurred.
