Clinical Negligence
Ellena uses experience gained in her personal injury and inquest practice to assess claims in this area.
She has advised hospital trusts at the early stages of litigation arising from alleged clinical failures, in particular a midwife allegedly failing to inspect a placenta and a GP allegedly failing to diagnose a rare form of cancer. A recent matter involved conducting a conference with a Consultant Vascular Surgeon concerning an ultrasound guided foam sclerotherapy procedure, allegedly performed negligently.
Ellena also acts on behalf of Claimants pursuing claims under the Fatal Accidents Act 1976 and the Law Reform (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1934. A recent matter concerned a baby who sadly passed away shortly after birth due to alleged negligence by the hospital trust.
