Contact our team to start your bone cancer misdiagnosis claim.
Yes, if a loved one has passed away from bone cancer after a misdiagnosis or a delayed diagnosis, you can claim on their behalf.
If you’re claiming following the death of a loved one, you’ve three years from the date of their death. Or you’ve three years after you first became aware that your loved one suffered a delay or misdiagnosis.
When you first contact us, we’ll speak to you about your situation to learn about what happened to you before your cancer diagnosis. We’ll also discuss what funding options are available to you, including no win no fee agreements.
The next step will be us contacting those who we believe are responsible for your negligent treatment. If those responsible accept blame, then we’ll try to secure interim payments, which can help to fund treatment and cover expenses. Interim payments will be taken out of your final settlement amount.
Our experts will use independent medical experts to gather evidence about your case. These experts can also offer advice on any potential future implications on your health and your future care needs.
We try to keep claims from going to court. This makes the process quicker and less stressful for you. However, if your claim does go to court, we’ll be with you every step of the way.
You normally must make a claim within three years of becoming aware that you received negligent treatment. However, we urge you to get in touch as soon as possible because we can get you compensation to help with your recovery.
There are exceptions to this if you’re claiming on behalf of someone without the mental capacity to claim on their own. See our medical negligence compensation time limits page for more information or contact us online.
Everyone’s claim is different, and so is the amount of compensation awarded in each case.
When you contact our team, we’ll get to know more about your situation and will be able to let you know how much you could receive.
