He has a wide range of experience including birth-related injuries to mother and child, brain damage following surgery (for example after late removal of untreated tumours) and other maximum severity cases involving disablement or life-limiting injuries. He also handles orthopaedic claims (negligent hip/knee replacement for example), cosmetic and dental surgery claims, fatal claims involving substantial dependency awards and all other types of clinical negligence claims. Andrew has handled a claim for the family of a 32 year old Portuguese mother of three who died when five months pregnant following negligent removal of an ovary instead of an infected appendix.
