It’s nigh on impossible to be financially prepared for an injury you didn’t expect to happen.
Recovering from a medical negligence injury is difficult enough without the added money worries that can often result from time off work and/or loss of earnings.
But you don't have to struggle alone. There are many agencies and organisations that offer free debt advice.
