Settlement Secured by Catherine Pinnegar

Catherine Pinnegar has reached a settlement on behalf of a lady who suffered significant physical and psychological issues after giving birth at her local hospital.

Despite being examined on several occasions during her labour, the midwives missed that her baby was in the breech position and even when it was identified, those treating the first time Mum, failed to give her the option of an emergency c-section.

Unfortunately, this resulted in an avoidable prolonged and very painful birth, that caused the new Mum significant injury that subsequently lead to a diagnosis of PTSD.

Claimant quote:  ‘Catherine I’m so thankful to you, you’ve worked so hard for us and I can’t thank you enough, it’s not been an easy journey for us or you but you never once gave up and that kept us going! So again, thank you so much!’
