Horsley Law of Stafford is pleased to announce a significant victory in securing a seven-figure
settlement on behalf of their client in a medical negligence claim.
The settlement, for a devoted parent of two, will ensure the financial security of the Claimant and
their young family after the heartbreaking loss of their partner due to a medical misdiagnosis.
This achievement is a testament to Horsley Law’s steadfast dedication to advocating for families,
championing quality healthcare, and providing unwavering legal support with compassion and
determination.
The Claimant’s partner attended a local GP surgery with chest pains, which was misdiagnosed
as heartburn and no referral to A&E was made. Tragically the Claimant’s partner suffered a fatal
cardiac arrest the following day.
This case highlights the devastating impact of medical negligence and the crucial role of expert
legal representation in securing justice. Despite the complexities and challenges often
associated with medical claims, the Horsley Law Team and their Counsel, John Coughlan KC at
No5 Chambers, worked tirelessly to ensure their client received the compensation they
deserved. Thus, providing the Claimant with much-needed peace of mind for their young family’s
future, albeit it cannot recompense the loss of a beloved parent and partner.
Ashley Cocker, Partner at Horsley Law, said,
“In the circumstances, we are pleased with this outcome and what it means for our client’s future; it
was more than just a claim—it was about representing a family and helping them after an
unimaginable loss.”“We are honoured to have played a role in securing justice and financial security for our client and
their children.”
This success story reinforces the importance of ensuring that those affected by medical
Negligence receive the support they need.
At Horsley Law, we are committed to guiding and supporting clients through the complexities of
medical negligence claims with expertise, tenacity, and compassion.
