Cian O’Carroll Solicitors has a team of medical negligence solicitors and legal assistants with unparalleled experience in the complex legal area of cancer misdiagnosis litigation. Legal actions can arise from misdiagnosis, delayed diagnosis, screening failures, delayed treatment and inappropriate treatment for a range of cancers and the cases are often both detailed and technical.
Over the past 15 years our team has developed an understanding of the issues and built a network of leading experts in oncology, radiology and pathology who guide us and our clients to accurately and fairly determine when negligence has occurred and a legal action is justified.

are well positioned to advise our clients on the strength or otherwise of a case they may be
considering and then progress that case, if taken, with speed and efficiency.
