Episiotomy

An episiotomy is a form of surgical intervention used by medical professionals during childbirth. It is the name given to a cut in the perineum of the mother, which is made to allow the safe delivery of the baby.

Occasionally, an episiotomy can be made negligently – either incorrectly or unnecessarily – and this can often cause unnecessary and ongoing pain and suffering for the new mother.

If you feel that you have suffered complications caused by an episiotomy that has been carried out either incorrectly or unnecessarily causing you pain, discomfort and/or infection you may be entitled to make a claim for medical negligence.

Loyalty Law’s expert solicitors specialise in medical negligence claims arising from negligent treatment during childbirth, including episiotomies, and can answer any questions you may have. Our expert solicitors will advise you on the chances of you pursuing a successful medical negligence claim and will advise you how much compensation you may be entitled to receive.

The cost of funding a medical negligence claim

Our expert solicitors will be able to discuss with you the various options of funding your claim which may include legal aid, a no-win no-fee agreement, or legal expense insurance. These options will be discussed with you in details to ensure you choose the option that is right for you.

Why choose Loyalty Law for your Episiotomy matter?

All Loyalty Law solicitors are checked and vetted to ensure that they meet our criteria in the following ways:

• Before they can start working with us and for you, they are individually interviewed by our managing director, a solicitor himself (although no longer practising). He is quickly able to assess whether they have the legal skills, but also whether they are easy to speak with on the telephone and will give you the confidence to believe in the service that you deserve.
• At the end of every legal matter that a Loyalty Law solicitor handles for one of our clients, we carry out an interview with the client to ensure that they have been completely satisfied with the service. This ensures that not only does the solicitor start off by providing an excellent service when he joins us, but through your feedback they continue to achieve the right service levels and continue to make you happy. This is important to us and is one of the reasons why we believe Loyalty Law is the right place for you to choose your solicitor.
