How can Capsticks help?
- Clinical negligence
Not only does our team of experienced lawyers assist our clients with litigation, but we also advise on a variety of legal matters before and after litigation such as the investigation and handling of complaints, serious incident reports, risk management and reputation management following adverse incidents. Our approach to claims is focused on early identification of risk and a clear strategy aimed at minimising costs and shelf life while adopting a firm position where needed.
More about this service - Governance
We are experienced in addressing the challenges presented in the healthcare setting, advising on clinical risk and governance to boards at major teaching hospitals as well as private hospitals and clinics. Ensuring good governance is in place means we can help healthcare organisations prevent future claims and develop a strong governance culture.
More about this service - Inquests
Our guidance and advice supports you through the entire inquest and regulatory processes. We work with you to minimise risk and ensure you and your staff are properly prepared prior to any inquest. With our holistic approach we will also analyse potential claims which may arise and what can be done to manage these.
More about this service - Policy
Our insurance and healthcare experience enables us to provide wide-ranging policy services as coverage counsel for underwriters on medical malpractice claims. We understand not only the importance of wordings being sufficiently clear but also the commercial relationships between insurers and their insureds and how they can be affected by policy decisions. We have worked with organisations as well as individuals on the instructions of underwriters to help them better understand reporting requirements and ensure compliance with policy conditions.
