Medical Negligence

We defend doctors and healthcare professionals in negligence claims, disciplinary inquiries, and professional complaints in Malaysia.

As part of our broader insurance practice, we advise medical practitioners and patients in matters involving alleged negligence, patient complaints, and professional conduct issues. Our team has acted for healthcare professionals in inquiries before the Malaysian Medical Council, safeguarding their rights and professional standing, as well as for patients seeking redress for substandard care, ensuring their interests are effectively protected.

Our regional advantage
