The Law in relation to Professional Negligence<\/h4>\n
In order to prove that a professional is negligent, it is necessary to establish that no reasonable competent professional, in the relevant field, at the relevant time, with the same qualifications and expertise, faced with the same circumstances, would have acted in the same way.<\/p>\n
If it is possible to show that a reasonable and competent body of professional opinion would have acted in the same way, then the advice\/action is not considered negligent.<\/p>\n
If negligence is established, it is also necessary to establish what is known as “causation”.\u00a0 This links the professional negligence (if established) with the ultimate outcome.\u00a0 In other words, it needs to be established that but for the error on the part of the professional, the adverse outcome would not have occurred.\u00a0 If this cannot be proven, there is no case in professional negligence.<\/p>\n
Statute of Limitations\/Time Limits in Professional Negligence<\/h3>\n
There are time limits within which actions for professional negligence have to be brought.\u00a0 If the action is not brought within those time limits the action may not be brought at all.\u00a0 It is generally advisable to move sooner rather than later.\u00a0 For further advice on these issues, you are strongly advised to contact a member of our team immediately, in order to ascertain what the specific time limits are in your case.<\/p>\n
