At the Injury Law Group, we help clients navigate the complex process of medical negligence claims with compassion, expertise and determination. If you have suffered from permanent or ongoing injuries which are the result of negligent treatment from a medical practitioner, health related service provider, dentist or hospital, you may be entitled to compensation.

Common Types of Medical Negligence

We support clients who have experienced a wide range of medical errors, including:


  • Misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis
  • Surgical errors
  • Medication mistakes
  • Birth injuries
  • Failure to warn about treatment risks
  • Negligent post-operative care
  • 

Whether your experience was with a public hospital, private clinic, or individual practitioner, we’re here to help you explore your legal options.

What You May Be Entitled To Claim

  • Medical costs (past and future)
  • Loss of income
  • Pain and suffering
  • Past and future care (including care provided for free by loved ones)

How do I bring about a claim against my doctor/health provider or hospital? And put on the left hand side.

If you want to make a claim against a doctor, dentist, therapist, or hospital, you should speak to a lawyer who handles medical negligence cases.

If the treatment happened in Victoria, you’ll need to show:


  • Negligence: The treatment you received wasn’t up to a reasonable standard.
  • Causation: That the negligence was the cause of your injury or loss
  • Injury: You have to establish that you have suffered a “significant injury” in order to make a claim for pain and suffering damages.
  • Time Limit: You must bring your claim within three years from the date of injury or from the date you became aware of the injury to make a claim. If you are a minor or a person with a disability, you have six years to take action.
