What are Vaginal Perineal Tears?
Vaginal Perineal Tears are tears that can occur between the vagina and the rectum and typically occurs in the process of childbirth when the baby’s head passes through the mother’s birth canal.
It can also occur as a result of using instruments to assist in the delivery of the baby. Such tears can cause severe pain for the mother, affect the healing process and impact the early stages of bonding between the mother and child.

How do I make a medical negligence claim?
Consult our medical negligence solicitor
It is advisable for you to speak to an experienced team of Medical Negligence Solicitors as soon as possible if you believe that you were not provided with an adequate or appropriate level of medical care, which resulted in you sustaining an injury or illness.
We obtain your medical records
After the consultation with your medical negligence solicitor, he/she will request access to your medical records and engage an independent medical expert to assess your records. The purpose of engaging an independent expert is to establish whether there was any negligence on the part of the medical professional.
The medical negligence litigation process
Where the independent medical expert is of the professional opinion that medical negligence did occur, upon your instructions, your solicitor will commence the process of issuing legal proceedings in Court against the medical professional and/or hospital.
