Psychiatric Injury Claims | Price Slater Gawne

More and more people are turning to psychiatrists for support. Unfortunately, however, while modern psychiatry has come a long way, all too often our medical professionals still fail to treat mental health patients correctly.

With extensive experience helping victims of poor psychiatric care, at Price Slater Gawne, we help to secure the compensation our clients and their families deserve so that they can move forward with their lives in the most positive way possible.

We have acted for many people who have lost loved ones as a result of failures of care leading to preventable suicides and for patients who have had unnecessary periods of illness.

Situations that may give rise to psychiatric claims include:

failure to properly monitor a patient formally admitted to hospital and at clear risk of suicide resulting in self-harm or preventable death
failure to admit a patient to hospital under the Mental Health Act resulting in suicide or attempted suicide
failure to monitor medication withdrawal properly resulting in preventable relapse of illness
failure to correctly diagnose a treatable condition resulting in unnecessary distress and suffering

We also pursue Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) claims and psychological injury claims.

If you or a loved one has been let down through a failure in psychiatric care, whether by a GP, Community Psychiatric Nurse or by staff at an NHS hospital or private clinic, we can help.

Contact us today for a no-obligation discussion on 03333 058375 or by email to [email protected] for further information regarding how we can work with you to access the support you require. We’re here to help.
