At Mahony’s, we are proud to share a success story where we helped a client secure compensation in a medical negligence case involving severe burns caused by improper wart treatment. Medical negligence can lead to unnecessary pain and suffering, and in this case, our client suffered significant injuries that impacted their daily life.
Our client had undergone a routine wart treatment procedure at a medical clinic in Adelaide. Unfortunately, due to negligence during the treatment, they sustained severe burns to their fingers. The wart treatment, which involved a cryotherapy procedure, was improperly administered, leading to third-degree burns. As a result, our client faced months of pain, limited mobility in their hand, and costly medical treatments for recovery.
The team at Mahony’s quickly stepped in to provide expert legal support. We gathered detailed medical evidence, including reports from dermatologists and burn specialists, to establish that the burn injuries were caused by improper medical care during the procedure. Through thorough investigation, we demonstrated that the clinic had failed to follow proper protocols, which directly led to the injury.
We then filed a medical negligence claim on behalf of our client, seeking compensation for the pain, suffering, and financial losses they endured, including medical bills, loss of income, and the ongoing impact on their quality of life.
Thanks to our persistence and legal expertise, we successfully negotiated a settlement with the clinic's insurer. Our client received compensation that covered all medical costs related to the burns, including rehabilitation expenses. Additionally, we secured compensation for the physical and emotional distress caused by the injury.
This case highlights the importance of holding medical professionals accountable when negligence leads to harm. It also reinforces the value of seeking expert legal advice when faced with a medical malpractice issue.
