Professional negligence occurs when a professional fails to perform their responsibilities correctly and their client suffers unreasonable harm or loss as a result.
You might claim professional negligence, for instance, if you lose money because of bad business advice. Or if you suffer an injury because a personal trainer failed to ask about pre-existing conditions.
If you make a professional negligence claim and it's settled in your favour, you can expect to receive financial compensation for your loss or injury.
To answer this question, we need to explain the difference between civil law and criminal law.
Civil law covers cases between individuals, or between individuals and organisations. Criminal law relates to offences that harm society as a whole.
As professional negligence claims are typically made by a client against an individual or company, they're considered civil actions.
In cases of extreme negligence, criminal proceedings can be brought forth. An example is the crime of gross negligence manslaughter (GNM), where a person dies because of grossly negligent actions or omissions.
There's a fine line between professional negligence and professional malpractice – so much so, the terms are often used interchangeably.
The difference comes down to intent. When a professional makes a mistake that results in harm or loss for their client, this is considered negligence. If, however, the accused intended this harm (or at least anticipated it), then it's considered malpractice.
Payouts for professional negligence vary considerably depending on the nature of the claim and the level of loss or injury suffered.
For example, compensation for property damage can range from £5,000 to £500,000. Damages for loss of quality of life can range from £5,000 to £1 million or more.
