Full Credential Description
5 Reasons Why Fundraising can Go Wrong James Bell successfully settled a claim for Mr H against Barts Health NHS Trust following failures in catheterisation by the Accident & Emergency Department at Whipps Cross Hospital. The case for Mr H was that the attempts at catheterisation used excessive force causing trauma to his urethra. Mr H was left with ongoing physical injuries including damage to the structure of his urethra and psychological injuries including Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and an impact on psychosexual health. Mr H was in his early 40’s with young children. He worked for a bank and was concerned that his career progression had been affected by his psychiatric injuries. Expert evidence was obtained and the claim advanced included an award for being disadvantaged on the labour market. The Defendant did not make any admissions of liability. However, the claim was settled for £200,000 which represented a very good outcome for Mr H. Mr H said of James Bell “It has been a pleasure to work with you on the case and your expertise, commitment and informed legal viewpoint has been greatly appreciated at all times.”
