At AWH Solicitors, we recently secured a £45,000 settlement for a client who suffered significant health issues due to prolonged exposure to damp and mould in her home. The client, a long-term resident of her property since 1997, experienced worsening conditions from 2012 onwards when the property fell into severe disrepair. At one stage, the client’s home even became flooded, further exacerbating the living conditions.

The client enlisted Sean Francis Ryan, raising a claim for respiratory health damages and housing disrepair compensation.

At AWH Solicitors, we recently resolved a deeply distressing medical negligence claim on behalf of a client who lost an o***y after no post‑natal follow‑up was arranged, despite an ovarian cyst having been identified during pregnancy.

The Trust admitted that they failed to arrange the required post‑natal ultrasound or refer her to a gynaecologist. Initially they denied the connection with the eventual loss of her o***y, but after submission of further evidence, they admitted both liability and causation recognising that timely care would likely have prevented the outcome.

Under the guidance of our medical negligence solicitor, Margaret Harvey, we secured a settlement of £45,000 for our client. This award recognises her pain, suffering and the serious physical and emotional impact the delay caused, including future treatment needs.

If you or someone you know has experienced inappropriate delays in diagnosis, missed follow‑up care, or inadequate post‑natal support, please contact us for a free consultation to explore whether you may be entitled to compensation.
