Medical GDPR breach claims for compensation

Medical GDPR breach claims are some of the most significant that we represent people for here at Your Lawyers as leading privacy claims experts. We know how badly people can be affected when private and sensitive healthcare data has been misused or exposed, which is why our role is important to make sure that people can access some form of justice for what has happened to them.

Thankfully, the GDPR not only protects people and enforces rules and regulations in respect of privacy, but it is also the gateway to allow people to recover damages in the event something has gone wrong. People can be eligible to pursue medical GDPR breach claims on the basis that their healthcare data has been involved in a breach, and this kind of case is treated more seriously given that the GDPR can class medical information as “special category” data. This can afford such data extra protection and can mean that punishments for breaches can be harsher from the UK’s data watchdog, the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), and claim values can be higher.

When it comes to data breach compensation pay-outs and amounts for these kinds of cases, they can be substantial because the level of distress that victims can suffer can be significant. Generally speaking, the more you suffer, the more a claim could be worth.

No Win, No Fee legal representation

We are able to offer No Win, No Fee legal representation for those who pursue medical GDPR breach claims with our leading team of experts. We work this way because we are committed to access to justice, and we do not believe it would be fair if people had to pay to claim.

Ultimately, we recognise that most people would be unable to afford to pursue a claim in the event they had to pay for a losing case. This could restrict the right to justice to only those who can afford legal assistance, which is not fair. When we work on a No Win, No Fee basis, we can waive our legal fees if the claim does not succeed, and all our client has to do is comply with the reasonable terms and conditions in place. This allows access to justice, and we are more than happy to work this way. We also recognise that it really is the only feasible way of working, given that most people would probably not bother pursuing a claim if they had to pay for a losing case.

NHS GDPR breach claims

We naturally see a lot of NHS GDPR data breach claims when it comes to healthcare information being exposed or misused. You have the right as a patient to pursue a claim for compensation as a result of an NHS GDPR breach, and we may be able to help you with the legal case.

We can investigate what has happened and consider whether we believe there has been a breach of the GDPR. We can then seek an admission of liability from the NHS or the legal team that is dealing with the matter, and then recover the damages that you could be entitled to receive.
