Oral cancer, also called mouth cancer, can affect any part of your mouth. It can occur at any age, but the risk increases as you get older. Being diagnosed and getting treated quickly are vital to stopping oral cancer from spreading. If you’ve been misdiagnosed or are experiencing a delay in diagnosis this can mean your treatment needs to be more invasive and complex.

Contact us today to discuss making an oral cancer misdiagnosis claim for compensation.

Our specialist solicitors have been securing compensation in oral cancer misdiagnosis claims for decades. Whether you have been misdiagnosed or had a late diagnosis, either by a dentist, hygienist, GP or other medical professional, we’ll treat your case as the unique situation it is and give you tailored legal advice that we believe will get you the best possible outcome.

Getting a misdiagnosis of oral cancer will understandably leave you feeling scared, angry, and confused. We understand no amount of money can make up for the unnecessary neglect you experienced. However, making an oral cancer claim can help to pay for private treatment and get you the answers you’re owed.

Depending on the severity of cancer and the treatment, you may experience changes to the way that you breathe, eat, drink, or speak. These changes can be more drastic if your cancer wasn’t detected until later. Compensation can help you to pay for any adjustments and care you need, both now and in the future. 

You can make a no win no fee claim, meaning there’s no cost to you if your claim is unsuccessful. We can also help you to make a claim if you’ve lost a loved one from an oral cancer misdiagnosis.

The Legal 500, a leading independent legal guide, describes us as: “A first-class national practice with extensive experience in all types of clinical negligence claims – from small claims to maximum severity. Kevin Saul and Shahin Master were listed as key names for oral cancer cases in the Legal 500 rankings.

Aside from our legal expertise, you’ll also have help from our Support and Rehabilitation team. They’ll work to get you all the support you need and will make sure it’s support that’s local to you.
