Michael is a direct access barrister who has been assisting individuals and their families bringing accident and emergency medical negligence claims for over 20 years.

Nobody wants or plans a visit to A&E unless they work there. For most patients a visit to A&E will be stressful but necessary and maybe even save your life. For a very unfortunate minority of people, the result of going to A&E can result in a worse outcome than they anyone might reasonably have expected.

Of course, it is important to remember the intense pressure that those who work in emergency healthcare are often under. Whilst mistakes are absolutely understandable it is still no reason not to seek compensation if you or one of your loved ones has been the victim of one of those mistakes and suffered a life changing outcome.

If you or a member of your family should need assistance with a case involving accident and emergency medical negligence then Michael should be able to help you.
