Advice please. Reluctant Medical Negligence claim

no, I haven't but I always think these things improve service for those who come after us, as the other person said you probably won't get a solicitor to act for you if you don't want money so I'd take the money and give it to charity if you really don;t want it

There is the PALS route

Thats the only route I can think of, it does include

"the NHS complaints procedure, including how to get independent help if you want to make a complaint"

Thank you Astichintime. I’m so disgusted by the lack of candour in the response that I’d go down the ‘no win no fee’ route just to make the Health Board be honest! Has anyone had experience of using these firms? Perhaps if I approached one I would know if I stood a chance.

If you don't want financial compensation you would be wasting your time with a 'no win no fee' legal firms they just simply want to get as much money as possible out of the guilty party, and I speak from experience.

To get legal advice otherwise it would no doubt cost you just the same as legal advice for any other issue I suppose but you might get a free consultation to begin with.

I am sure some other GNetters can shed some light on this
