Conveyancing Brisbane

Rick Y, dont bother with your wills solicitor. They are probably good at what they do, but you need to see someone who has experience suing for hospital negligence.

We suffered to because of a hospital in Sydney. Our child has brain damage because the hospital screwed up her treatment. Our bub had dangerous jaundice levels and they missed it and didnt start treatment until too late. She had kernicterus and had fits and then brain damage.

Our local solictor told us he could not do the case becausr you need specialist lawyer who knows medical negligence laws. We asked him to recommend someone to us, and he asked some barristers, and then gave us a list of names of the lawyers in sydney who are good in this area. So we made a fews appointment s and saw a couplke of them and then decided which one we liked.

I can tell which lawyers he told us to see. This is the list he gave us 6 years ago, so i dont know if these lawyers are still around, but you can try contacvting the Law Society NSW and they also can help you find a lawyer. This is the list of sydney medical lawyers- Bill Madden, David Hirsch, Tina Foukas, Karen stott, Fiona Read, Terry Stern. Firms- Cashman and partners, mclaughln riordan, charlton sherman, Slater Gordan.
We saw Tina- lovely person and veery clever lawyer.
Our case took years to finish but that is because the hospital lawyers fought really hard to make things difficult. But we won in the end, and our child has comepnsation money in a trust fund to take care of her needs for her disabilites.

A warning- any lawyer who promises you that you will win lots of money etc before they even start investigations in your case , is not good. You need someone honest to lok at all your case and investigate it. Our lawyer told us from the start just because something bad happened to our baby doesnt mean it was negligence and you dont automaticly get money for it. It doesnt work that way. These cases are hard and can be emotionally hard battle to fight. So make sure you find lawyer you are comfortable with and who you trust.

I feel for you cause we have been through it. But please know you can survive if you get the right help and support.

sadly yes, it is hard and if it was not an emergency which sadly in allmost every laybour at some stage something seems not right but commonly things go fine by themselfs. i think if this doctor was not working i would assume he was on call which means if they need him he comes in? it depends where he lives, what time off dfay or night? it is very sad you have my complete sympathy.. i just mean he has his ways has a doctor to get completely out of it.. i tryed suing also i had my last baby they told me he was missing an arm and had diwn syndrom they induced me extremely early only to descover my baby was completely healthy exept the struggles off premature lungs ect.. i heamoraged also it was severe a doctor came in also about an hour late he did an internal and during that my partner started pushing the doctor and swearing.. the doctor had no gloves on and was doing an internal… hospitals are sneaky and get out off so many things especially in sydney.. the harsh truth is not many lawyers would be willing to stand up to a hospital.. in the end there’s no point… try bell and partners.
