Editorial - Medical litigation in the 21st century.

The possibility of a medical negligence claim lies at the back of many doctors' minds. But which specialties see the greatest and fewest claims, and what are the potential costs to the NHS of a successful claim? In their article, Dr Lane et al. analyse 10 years' NHS litigation data, broken down by specialty, number of claims, and the attendant cost of those claims which were successful. Litigation in the 'post Montgomery' era is considered along with some of the common factors which may lead to a patient or their family taking legal action.
