Failing to obtain Evidence Solicitors Professional Negligence Claims
If you have suffered a loss through negligent litigation services, when the proceedings have been lost or damaged, due to errors in obtaining evidence or preparing the case for Trial, you will not only have suffered a significant loss but will also rightly feel let down. When things go badly wrong it can be very traumatic and stressful and it can seem very difficult and daunting to obtain legal redress for your loss, particularly when your Solicitor is the one to have caused you the loss.
The preparation of a case for Trial in a Civil or Employment claim or indeed in a Criminal or Family case is a very important part of your Solicitors work. The consideration of your instructions, the application of the relevant law and procedure, the collation, consideration and preparation of relevant documents and the obtaining of witnesses of fact and experts are each hugely important. Unfortunately errors in this work sometimes occur and it can have a very damaging effect upon your case, leading either to a less favourable result or worse still the loss of your case. In these circumstances we are confident that we can help you obtain proper redress and compensation for your loss in a professional negligence claim against your Solicitor.
Although there are several different types of case where the claim could be lost or damaged as a result of your Solicitor failing to obtain evidence the most usual types include:
| Failing to inspect or use the other side’s documents | Failing to serve on the other side your expert Report or Witness statements or other important evidence which has been obtained |
| Failing where relevant to make proper enquiries and obtain medical evidence as to an effect on your earning capacity | Failing where relevant to obtain up to date evidence as to your condition and prognosis for the future |
| Failing to make proper enquiries and obtain evidence as to a loss of earnings or other loss identified from your instructions | Failing to disclose or include important evidence in the Trial Bundles so that it is not used |
| Failing to contact witnesses | Failing to serve a Witness summons or Hearsay Notice |
| Failing to prepare or obtain signed witness Statements | Relying on a written statement when oral evidence was required |
| Failing to call a witness to Trial | Failing to obtain, use or disclose relevant documents |
| Failing to obtain expert evidence from the right expert or on the correct issues or at all | Failing to give proper instructions to or ask the correct questions of an expert |
| Failing to understand or act upon your instructions | Failing to act upon a Barrister’s advice on evidnece |
