Medical negligence, sometimes called clinical negligence, happens when healthcare professionals fail to meet the expected standard of care, causing injury, delay, or worsening health. Whether it’s a hospital error, GP misdiagnosis, or delayed treatment, BriefBase helps you explain your experience in plain English and organises it into a solicitor-ready summary built around key medical-legal principles.

Include as much detail as possible: appointment dates, departments involved, what was said or done, and how it affected you physically or emotionally. BriefBase identifies potential breaches of duty, timelines of harm, and links between treatment and outcome, producing a clear brief suitable for complaint procedures, NHS Resolution, or solicitor-led claims.
