Two of Catherine Henry Lawyers’ health and medical lawyers – and the firm – have been recognised in the prestigious 2021 Doyle’s Guide lists of NSW’s top medical negligence compensation lawyers and law firms.
The firm has again made the Leading Medical Negligence Compensation Law Firms (Plaintiff) – New South Wales.
Principal, Catherine Henry, and Head of Health Law, Tom Lyons, are recommended in the Leading Medical Negligence Compensation Lawyers (Plaintiff) – New South Wales, list.
This is the fifth year in a row Catherine has made the list. Tom has previously been recommended as a leading insurance lawyer.
The listings put the regional NSW based health law firm alongside very well-known and established Sydney firms and lawyers.
“Our Health Law team is passionate about using the law to gain compensation and justice for people who have suffered because of negligence or malpractice by surgeons, doctors, GPs, nurses, midwives, dentists and other health practitioners,” Tom said.
“We want to give the best advice and representation for people in regional areas who have received substandard medical care,” he said.
Catherine said the current Upper House Inquiry into regional, rural and remote healthcare in NSW is showing that people outside of Sydney have poorer access to health services and have poorer health outcomes than people living in capital cities,” Catherine said.
“Making a claim for medical negligence can provide justice and redress for people and also change health systems and improve professional standards of healthcare,” Catherine said.
The 2021 listing of leading Plaintiff-focused NSW Medical Negligence & Malpractice Compensation Lawyers details solicitors practising within the areas of medical negligence and malpractice matters in the NSW legal market who have been identified by the state’s defendant insurance lawyers for their expertise and abilities in these areas.
Making and winning a medical negligence claim is complex. So, it pays to have Catherine Henry Lawyers’ highly experienced and expert medical negligence lawyers on your side.
