Knee Replacement Claims
Knee replacement surgery is supposed to improve your situation, not worsen it. We can help you put things right.
When your knee replacement surgery feels like a step backward, we can help you move forward
It can be difficult to understand exactly why your knee replacement went wrong. When that happens, it’s important to have the legal experts by your side.
Cases of medical negligence during knee replacement procedures can look different. We’ve dealt with hundreds of knee replacement claims, including:
- Use of a defective product
- Issues caused by the way the knee replacement was fitted
- Incorrectly fitted product causing pain, stress or discomfort
- Knee replacement complications leading to further surgery.
Our experience with knee replacement claims means we know what needs to be done to help you achieve the best possible compensation settlement.

We helped Barbara claim for knee replacement compensationBarbara was left in agony after being fitted with a right-sided implant during a left knee replacement. Experts in medical negligence, our lawyers investigated her care under East Cheshire NHS Trust, which runs the hospital she was treated at. We were able to prove negligence had taken place and get the Trust to admit they had failed to perform the operation correctly. They also acknowledged that Barbara would need corrective surgery as a result.
