As a law firm representing women where these problems have arisen, we know how devastating this can be.<\/p>\n<p>As we often say, we can\u2019t turn back the clocks and reverse what has happened to you.

It can also worsen the issue if it was already an issue beforehand, and in some cases, there may be nothing that can be done about it. This can leave some women suffering from incontinence problems for the rest of their lives, and that\u2019s something that we need to carefully assess when it comes to a case.<\/p>\n<p>Although we\u2019re sure that you\u2019d much rather not have to be left with a problem like incontinence, we can recover compensation for this. It may not be perfect, but it can be a way of obtaining some form of justice for what has happened to you.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>How do we factor this into a claim?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>When we look at pelvic mesh and incontinence problems, we need to assess how we can recover compensation for this, which we usually need to look at on a case-by-case basis.<\/p>\n<p>If it was the case that your mesh was supposed to correct the problem, you may be able to recover compensation for being left with the issue. If the incontinence has worsened, this can also be factored into any case we make. If it wasn\u2019t there before you had the mesh, this again can be accounted for.<\/p>\n<p>How we value a case isn\u2019t an exact science. Information like the above is useful, but we need to get you seen by an independent medical expert who can produce a report for us. This report can detail the extent of any pain, suffering and loss of amenity you have suffered with, and will suffer with for the future.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Claims advice today<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>You can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vaginalmeshlawyers.co.uk\/start-your-claim\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>speak to our team today <\/strong><\/a>about pelvic mesh and incontinence problems and whether we\u2019re able to represent you for a legal case on a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vaginalmeshlawyers.co.uk\/no-win-no-fee-mesh-compensation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>No Win, No Fee basis<\/strong>.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>You can contact the team on 0800 634 75 75 or take a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vaginalmeshlawyers.co.uk\/start-your-claim\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>look at our contact page here<\/strong><\/a> for more information and more ways to get in touch.<\/p>\n<p>All of our initial advice is available for you on a free and no-obligation basis.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The issues of pelvic mesh and incontinence is a matter that needs to be taken seriously.
