Medical negligence
Medical Negligence
Medical negligence is when a health care or medical professional causes physical injury or mental harm to a patient because they have deviated from the standards expected in their profession.
There are numerous ways that medical negligence can occur from incorrect treatment, misdiagnosis of a condition or indeed via surgical mistakes. We are able to offer after the event ATE insurance cover for both clinical negligence and dental negligence cases.
We arrange after the event insurance policies for dental negligence and medical negligence claims.
This list is not exhaustive and we are continually developing what covers we can offer in response to our client’s needs. If your practice is seeking a fast, simple, online facility with competitive premiums you should contact us.
For more details contact us on 0800 524 4235, email info@prosperityinsurance.co.uk or complete the enquiry form on our contact page.
Our products are designed to fit in with the legal process which solicitors will follow regarding these cases and are split into 2 different elements. The first element of the cover is to assist the solicitor with their investigation and the gathering of evidence in relation to both the breach and causation of the case, with this element of the after the event ATE insurance premium still being recoverable from the defendant.
The second element of the cover is to assist the solicitor with the progression of the case via the legal process in order to obtain access to justice for the client and appropriate compensation for their injuries. This element of the after the event ATE insurance cover is paid for directly by the claimant as a fixed percentage of their recovered compensation.
Usually in medical negligence cases, solicitors will look to handle these cases on a ‘no win, no fee’ agreement. If you are a lawyer and your client has been the victim of medical negligence, you need to talk to us.
We can help you find an after the event insurance solution that will help to get your client the compensation they deserve. While compensation is useful, we know that it does not solve every problem, but it can reduce your clients’ stress so they can focus their attention on progressing their recovery back to or as near to full health as is possible. If your practice is seeking a fast, simple, online facility with competitive premiums you should contact us.

ATE
Insurance
ATE Insurance is an insurance policy that protects and covers a client who wants to pursue a claim against the risk of having to pay their opponents legal costs and disbursements if the case is unsuccessful.
Conveyancing Indemnities
As an experienced provider of ATE insurance to lawyers and their clients, we are well aware that the profession also has a need for other client-facing legal indemnities. One of the most frequent requests we get from solicitors is for legal indemnities for conveyancing transactions.
