Irvings recently acted for an elderly gentleman who was over-prescribed drugs by a pharmacist. This resulted in a severe mental breakdown and accelerated the onset of his Alzheimer’s. The estimated acceleration was 18 months, hugely traumatic not only himself but his surviving spouse and family. Responsibility for the overdose was accepted by the dispensary. We then had to attempt to quantify the impossible; what is the loss of 18 months worth of life? We consulted experts and in the end, the case settled with our client’s family satisfied with the result.
Romilly Houghton, our specialist in care home injury and elder abuse, can speak with you directly about your potential claim.
