9 Gough Square can bring its considerable practical expertise in Personal Injury and Clinical Negligence disputes to bear when something goes wrong with a claim and the lawyers concerned are brought into the firing line.
Missed a limitation date?
Don’t panic: let us help to see if the position can be rescued by an application under section 33 of the Limitation Act, or by a claim against another party.
If a client has to claim against the lawyer for a lost chance of success, we will provide an approach tailored to that claim. We can help with issues such as:
How to calculate the Lost Chance,
How to assess a Notional Trial Date,
How to fill the gaps in evidence obtained by the first lawyers,
What to do about events occurring post the Notional Trial Date,
How to prepare the schedule of loss,
What to do about interest.
We deal with a whole range of Lawyers’ Liability claims in Personal Injury and Clinical Negligence cases, including missed limitation dates, failures to prepare claims fully, under-settlement, breaches of authority, missed MIB deadlines and many other problems that can arise in bringing claims.
