Leslie Keegan has been successful in securing total damages of £200,000, for the claimant, a thirty-eight-year-old woman, after she had to undergo a hysterectomy, when a bleed which occurred following a myomectomy procedure was not identified quickly enough and dealt with appropriately.
The claimant, who had one child, wanted to have a further child which would only be possible using her own eggs with a combination of IVF and surrogacy.
The settlement included a sum for future fertility treatment.
Leslie was instructed by Clarkson, Wright and Jakes Ltd.
