    Case Study – Clinical Negligence  

    Our client was suffering from a brain tumour that their GP failed to diagnose for over a year, leading to a delay in treatment and prolonged suffering from symptoms. The amount of compensation awarded was £100,000. 

    KEY FACTS 
    NAME OF CLIENT  Gurpreet
    INJURY SUMMARY  Misdiagnosis of a brain tumour leading to further complications and problems, such as complete deafness in the right ear.  
    CASE RESOLUTION  Case settled in April 2021 for £100,000 in compensation. 
    SOLICITOR Nadine Elkin 

     

    Circumstances 

    In April 2015, our client was finally diagnosed and taken for the brain surgery that she needed in order to help alleviate the symptoms of her brain tumour. She had been visiting the GP, complaining of symptoms for over a year but her GP had continued to misdiagnose her and she had not received the treatment that she needed. 

    Injuries 

    A failure to properly diagnose and a build-up of fluid meant that our client suffered severe problems, such as complete deafness in her right ear, numbness to her face and tongue as well as shaky hands. 

    Settlement  

    Our client contacted Jefferies Solicitors in September 2019 and she was represented by Solicitor Nadine Elkin.  

    The case was settled in April 2021 for £100,000. 

    Our client said about her experience with Jefferies, “I’ve been kept informed and all my queries answered throughout the duration of my medical negligence claim. Couldn’t have worked with a better team.”
