Gadsby Wicks Solicitors Gadsby Wicks Solicitors are true specialists in medical negligence who use our legal expertise and experience to help patients and their families.

At Gadsby Wicks, we only represent people who have suffered through medical negligence. Since 1993, we have achieved millions of pounds each year in compensation for our clients, many of whom have been severely disabled. Where possible, we also aim to get an explanation for what happened to cause the accident, along with an apology. This is often extremely important for families who are trying to come to terms with the consequences. It can also encourage change to reduce the possibility of the mistake happening again to someone else. We are experts in handling medical negligence claims, including harm caused by a mishandled birth, surgical errors and complications arising from misdiagnosis and delayed treatment and offer our No Win No Fee guarantee to help you fund your case, whatever your financial circumstances. Our No Win No Fee Guarantee
• Nothing to pay upfront
• Nothing to pay throughout the case
• Nothing to pay if you lose
• No hidden charges

Our lawyers are widely regarded as being amongst the best in their field. Based in Chelmsford, Essex, we primarily handle claims throughout Essex, East Anglia and the South-East as well as the rest of England and Wales. If you, or a loved one, have been injured as a result of your medical treatment, please talk to us in confidence to see if you may have a claim.

Critical mistakes during childbirth can turn what should be a joyous event into one filled with fear and uncertainty.

For Baby O’s family, a series of inexcusable failures by his midwives led to him being born with Quadriplegic Dystonic Cerebral Palsy, meaning he cannot walk unaided and is unable to speak.

Nothing can change what happened, but we were proud to secure over £6 million in compensation to ensure he receives the care and support he needs for the rest of his life.

We’d like to thank Julie for sharing these kind words about the support she received from our own Caragh Hargreaves during her recent claim 💚

The emotional weight of claiming on behalf of a lost loved one, especially a parent, is something we never underestimate.

We pride ourselves on being there when our clients need us, and on not just guiding their case, but ensuring they understand exactly what we’re doing at every step of the process.

It is a privilege to have people as compassionate and dedicated as Caragh throughout our team 👏

What influences the compensation awarded in an amputation claim? 🤔

Below, we outline some of the key factors that determine the settlement in an amputation claim. Remember, there is no average compensation award – it largely depends on the claimant’s specific injuries and circumstances.

For more insight into the causes and consequences of amputation claims, watch the latest Medical Negligence Matters podcast with Gillian Gadsby and Corrina Mottram 🎙️
