If you have had to endure years of suffering as a result of being fitted with a vaginal mesh implant, you’re not alone, and we may be able to help you.
We’re representing a number of women who are claiming for personal injury compensation as a result of the problems they’ve had. Some people’s issues can be resolved, or at least managed to a good degree. However, in some cases, there are patients who have been left with life-altering problems.
When you make a claim for compensation, the process is designed to put you back in the position you would have been had the incident never have occurred. In some cases, we can’t really do that, but there’s a great deal that we can do to make sure you’re properly compensated.
Can you claim for years of suffering problems?
If you’ve had to endure years of suffering as a result of pains, problems and complications that have arisen from being fitted with a vaginal mesh implant, you may be able to make a claim for personal injury compensation.
Having represented people for a long time, we genuinely understand how bad the complications can be. We know about the constant pain. We know about the fact that some women are left unable to walk or work ever again. We know that hobbies can no longer be pursued. We know that pain can be constant and can disrupt sleep and radiate to other areas of the body.
We know that in severe cases some women are left disabled; reliant on walking stick, wheelchairs, and suffering with even getting out of the house.
We know that lives can be turned upside down, and we know that it’s hard to get help, and that you were not expecting this all to happen.
There have been huge questions over the extent of advice that has been given to patients prior to having this controversial procedure. That’s one of the key things we look at when it comes to determining if we can offer you No Win, No Fee representation for a case.
What do you claim for?
How do you put a price on years of suffering?
It’s not an exact science, but we assess the extent and the severity of the pain, suffering and loss of amenity using expert medical evidence. In severe cases, you may need to see more than one of our experts, and their reports can be used as key evidence for the claim.
Generally speaking, the more you suffer, the more you may be able to claim. On top of compensation for the pain and problems, you can also claim back losses and expenses. This can include private treatment and private surgery, which can be vital in efforts to improve your life. If private options that aren’t available on the NHS could help you, this may be able to be included as part of a case for compensation.
Help and support
Women can endure years of suffering when mesh devices fail. The devices can damage surrounding tissue and organs, and in some cases, problematic mesh simply cannot be fully removed.
This may leave victims with permanent problems.
