Orthopaedic Injury.

Orthopaedic Negligence Claims: Knee & Hip Replacement Negligence Claims.

The team of clinical negligence specialists at Lanyon Bowdler are highly experienced in dealing with orthopaedic injury claims relating to instances of medical negligence.

If you, or a member of your family, has been affected by an act of negligence by a doctor, GP or nurse, then it’s important to speak to a legal expert about the options open to you.

Common Orthopaedic Injury Claims

Orthopaedics is a very common form of medicine concerned with conditions involving the musculoskeletal system. So orthopaedic injury claims often stem from surgical procedures surrounding operations to replace worn joints or correct broken bones or fractures.

The most common Orthopaedic Injury/Negligence Claims are:

  • Knee replacement claims
  • Knee surgery claims
  • Hip resurfacing claims
  • Hip replacement claims
  • Hand surgery claims
  • Shoulder surgery claims
  • Arm surgery claims
  • Ankle surgery claims
  • Foot surgery claims
  • Leg surgery claims
  • Collar bone claims

Procedures are usually performed by orthopaedic surgeons, who despite their excellent training, do sometimes fail to manage, diagnose, or treat fractures in the right way, resulting in unnecessary suffering for the patient.

I contacted Lanyon Bowdler for advice on a Welsh Redress offer I received after a recent never event incident that happened during my ectopic pregnancy procedure. The advice and service I received from the very first phone call was fantastic. The advice and information from Emma Hart was clear and her approach was professional while being in a friendly manor. I was kept fully aware of what was happening and I am so thankful to her for sorting everything so quick and easy on my behalf. Her service was truly amazing.
