What Causes Obstetric Cholestasis?
It is caused by the liver disfunctioning during pregnancy. Someone suffering from Obstetric Cholestasis will often suffer symptoms of very itchy hands, feet and abdomen. Any pregnant woman who seeks medical advice complaining of these symptoms needs to be referred quickly by her medical advisor to see an appropriate consultant for blood and liver functioning tests to be performed. A failure or delay in the diagnosis of Obstetric Cholestasis can be very dangerous for both mother and baby. In most severe cases it can lead to a still birth and ultimately can establish grounds for medical negligence.

What Our Clients Say
“My reason for contacting you was to help me find a solicitor to deal with a medical negligence claim. My previous solicitor no longer does this kind of work. I can thoroughly recommend the services that 1st Claims offer for anybody who is seeking advice regarding medical negligence. The lady who took my details was very efficient and polite. Within hours I was phoned by a solicitor who you had recommended, and matters are now proceeding in a satisfactory way.
Before contacting you, I was apprehensive that I was not going to find anybody who would be able to help me in this specialised field. The benefits of your service are the fast response, followup and a good understanding of what is required.
I have complete confidence in recommending your excellent service. I am actually a retired doctor and can understand whether the people with whom I am dealing have a clear knowledge of what is required. Before I rang 1st Claims, i contacted a marketing agency and was told:-
1. That as my claim was so old, it was time barred.
2. they were unable to help as I had already been to another solicitor.
Both the reasons that I was given are completely wrong.

Kindest regards,
