Garling and Co. are an exceptional outfit. Matthew Garling is a talented lawyer and supported and surrounded by a great team of people including Allison Luck and others. What made Matthew... particularly impressive with my case were his ability to communicate complex legal processes and simplify options for the next steps, his genuine interest in the law, and his passion to seek appropriate compensation on my behalf. He was not ready to settle my case until I was ready to settle the case. I am very grateful to have had Garling and Co. 'in my corner' and would not hesitate to recommend this business to others.read moreElyce

I was referred to Garling & Co Lawyers, after previously retaining another law firm who failed to progress my matter for a period verging on three years.This was extremely frustrating and damaging,... causing me a lot of unnecessary stress and unreasonable delays. After my first conference with Matthew, he understood the challenges that I had faced and that I wanted to resolve my matter with the defendant reasonably and in a timely manner.My matter was resolved at mediation and during the process, Matthew and Dallas Morgan (barrister), professionally communicated the procedure to me and they negotiated a reasonable settlement, that I was comfortable in accepting.Thank you to Matthew and Allison for being patient with me during the most challenging time of my life. I can now move on with my life and heal. Had I not retained Garling & Co Lawyers, I highly doubt my matter would ever have been resolved.read moreSammy R.

Delayed Diagnosis Compensation Frequently Asked Questions
1. Can you sue for injuries caused by a hospital’s failure to prevent infection?
Yes, you may commence legal proceedings for compensation against a hospital if you sustained a permanent or significant injury due to a hospital’s failure to prevent infection.
2. What are the health consequences of an untreated infection?
Sepsis could develop if a patient’s infection was not diagnosed in a timely fashion and the patient did not receive appropriate treatment. Sepsis could result in multi-organ failure and even death in very severe cases. Patients may also develop osteomyelitis in cases of infection that progress to involve the bone, which is sometimes seen in diabetic patients. Some patients may require limb amputation to contain the infection. In young children, infection can cause meningitis and brain damage, and even death.
3. Who is responsible for the failure of hospital staff to prevent or effectively treat infection?
Hospitals are responsible for any alleged negligence by their employees, servants, or agents. Legal proceedings for compensation are usually commenced against the hospital. If the patient establishes negligence, compensation may be awarded for pain and suffering, the cost of personal care and domestic assistance, medical and allied health treatment costs, and any lost earnings.
