Specialist MRSA and Hospital Acquired Infection Solicitors

If you have suffered an MRSA infection or another hospital acquired infection you often feel angry and frustrated that your stay in hospital was a lot longer than anticipated. You may be wondering whether pursuing a claim against the hospital will be worthwhile or that it will just take another long period of your time away from you. We will use our expertise of these claims to ensure the process is as smoothe as possible and will largely leave you to live your life whilst we fight your claim for you.

What is MRSA, or Hospital Acquired Infections?

MRSA usually occurs in hospital. The "SA" part of MRSA is short for staphylococcus aureus which is a bacteria that normally safely lives on your skin and does not cause any problems. However, if you have any open wound surgery or when your resistance is low due to illness and you are given methicillin, or another form of antibiotic and the staphylococcus aureus becomes resitant to it. The full meaning of MRSA, therefore, is "methicillin resistant staphylococcus aureus".

What Should You Do Next?

You should seek urgent legal assistance to investigate the causes of the hospital acquired infection and examine whether you can make a claim for compensation.

Funding Your Birth Injury Claim

We can offer a range of funding options, from no win no fee (a conditional fee agreement) to legal aid. We can also offer payment by instalments if a payment must be made. We will work with you to provide you with the right funding solution for your means. Remember, all initial enquiries are free of charge.
