[royalsinger014 0]

Cancer is the most commonly diagnosed illness in the UK and is responsible for over half of all deaths. But, did you know that there are many ways to prevent cancer? According to Cancer Research UK, around 90% of cancers are down to lifestyle choices and only 10% are genetic. However, some cancers can be caused by negligence on behalf of doctors or medical professionals. If you have been diagnosed with cancer due to negligence then it is possible to file a claim against them for compensation

What is a Cancer Negligence Claim?

A cancer negligence claim is a legal action that can be filed by individuals who have developed cancer due to medical negligence.

The person making the claim may be a patient or their family members, depending on the circumstances of their case. The most common types of claims include:

• Negligence in diagnosis – where an inaccurate diagnosis was made and treatment wasn’t given in time;
• Negligence during surgery – when surgical procedures were not conducted properly;
• Delayed diagnosis – when doctors fail to make an accurate diagnosis within reasonable time after signs of cancer appear (or even before).
