Treatment injury and compensation claim in the UAE

How we help with treatment injury and compensation claim

• Evidence and document review

  Our review covers before-and-after medical records, treatment timeline, expert reports where available, expense receipts and loss evidence. We identify what supports your position and what needs clarification or further evidence.

• Is a medical committee review needed before a compensation claim?

  Article 18 of the Medical Liability Decree-Law requires referral and presentation to the medical liability committees before a medical-liability compensation action is accepted. The committee assesses error, harm and causation, including each participant’s contribution where relevant. Its technical review does not itself pay compensation. Preserve the clinical chronology, committee report and separately evidenced losses for the competent court process. Document the condition before treatment, the alleged injury and subsequent course. Keep treatment costs, income effects and other claimed losses separately supported. The claim requires assessment of causation and professional responsibility; an injury after treatment is not conclusive proof of either.
