My Observer review of Astra Taylor's The People's Platform: And Other Digital Delusions .
The launch of the Mosaic browser in 1993 transformed the internet into a mainstream medium and brought the corporate world online, so from then on the die was cast. What happened is that the two universes effectively merged, so we now live in a strange amalgam of meat- and cyberspace in which the elements of each run riot. A virtual space that once had no crime and no surveillance has become one with an abundance of each; and the "real" world has been destabilised by the astonishing power and properties of networks.

The sewing machines cylinder shaped arm has been extended to give approximately 960mm clearance.
A stitch length of up-to 7.5mm is possible and the machine has a reverse stitch lever as standard.
The presser foot has an extra high lift and can go up to 20mm, allowing for a large range of heavy & extra heavy weight material to be used.

People are so wonderfully creative. Susan Stockwell, UK artist, specializes in ... well... many things, but at the top of the list I would put "creative use of unusual materials". And she uses a lot of coffee and tea, which I think is just grand!
This goes in the category of "dress work" - the train of this life-sized dress was stitched together from used coffee filters. The dress itself is coffee stained waxed paper cups, sewn together.
Pretty amazing. And if you ever run out of coffee filters... no, I guess you wouldn't want to pilfer from this piece of art.
She's also fashioned a beautiful Victorian style dress (can I borrow this for an afternoon tea party?) made out of old maps of the British Isles.
She does a lot of map-art. Stuff made out of maps. Maps made out of ... stuff.
In addition to this map of India, made entirely of tea bags stitched together, she's got several versions of the world: here is a map of the world, painted with coffee on coffee filter paper and here's the world painted with tea on tea bag paper. Here's a map made with a tea stain. And here's a map of the America's made with coffee filters glued together.
You have a great ability for building fun sites, I just came from your other site and was enjoying the progression photos of your paintings, yet it didn't seem to have any recent entries. have you left it for coffee? (not that -that is bad) some day i will have to share my painting of morning fairies sitting on the edge of a coffee cup And yes... all painted in different strengths of coffee and tea. My blog is real new but check it out, I think it will speak to the artist in you.
Isn't that cool? I've thought about using maps for decoupage etc, but I've never thought of making maps out of other stuff. I just love creative people!
I love the map work.

So, can we talk about the 'Stranger Things' season 4 finale yet?

OK, considering Stranger Things has now reached over one billion hours — not minutes, HOURS — I assume you've watched the finale and I can link some stuff here that might be a wee bit spoilery? If you are one of the five people who haven't watched, I suggest scrolling down until you see something about The Boys … unless you're not up to date with it, either.
One more character nearly didn't make it out of the finale alive, until the Duffer Brothers decided they needed to keep them around. Can you guess who?

When Millie Bobby Brown called for the writers to kill off more characters, and for the Duffer Brothers to stop being "two sensitive Sallies," they reminded her that this is Hawkins, not Westeros.

But let's be honest, people are going to die next season. My money is on Eleven, and probably Jonathan. Steve is also a strong contender, but I lean towards Jonathan. Possibly Will? But more likely Jonathan.
Speaking of next season, it will largely take place in Hawkins, instead of, you know, all over the country and planet like this season.
They also intend to explain why the Upside Down is stuck in time at the moment Will disappeared. INTERESTING. I might have just bumped back up Will's chances of dying next season. As for what we know about the Upside Down, here's a rundown.
And next season's runtime is going to be more like 10 hours, instead of this season's interminable 13 hours. (THANK GOODNESS.)
Will Dr. Brenner be back? Matthew Modine doesn't know.
As for the spinoff series, it will be "1000% different" than Stranger Things, and will not be about any of the current characters we know and love.
Taika Waititi is angry that Stranger Things "ruined" Kate Bush. Oh calm down, Taika, and let people enjoy things. You sound just as bad as those Metallica fans. 1. No one likes a gatekeeper and 2. Kate Bush is making bank thanks to Stranger Things. Don't you want Kate Bush to make bank, Taika?

Noah Schnapp (who plays Will) posted a TikTok video showing DMs between himself and Doja Cat, who was interested in Schanpp's co-star Joseph Quinn's (Eddie) romantic situation. And now Doja Cat is pissed.
But who can blame her for loving Eddie, amiright? (Here's where you've seen him before, btw.)

As for how The Boys' writers came up with that idea — which diverges from the comics — according to showrunner Eric Kripke, it developed out of the larger themes of the season, generational trauma, toxic masculinity, and daddy issues.
And this is a great piece about what a great job the show is doing with Mother's Milk and Black Noir.
And speaking of Black Noir — of COURSE he's like Snow White. Snow White/Black Noir … get it?
For some reason, Netflix has released Dave Chappelle: What's In A Name, which is the speech Dave Chappelle gave at Washington D.C.'s Duke Ellington School of the Arts, where they were set to name a theater after him — until the whole trans controversy erupted. You should read this well-argued piece about the speech here, but the TL;DR is Chappelle doubled down on his "you can't tell me what I can't say" attitude; called himself a "once-in-a-lifetime talent" and his controversial special a "masterpiece"; claims the students are being used as "tools of oppression," instead of, you know, expressing their own views; and revealing that the students hurt his fee-fees, without once thinking about how his own words have hurt others. Anyway.
Candice Patton opens up about the fierce racism and harassment she faced in the early years of being on The Flash, and how neither The CW, nor DC did anything to help or protect her.

Americans' trust in the news is at an all-time low. Interestingly — and tellingly, I think — Republicans' trust in television news is on the rise, but their trust in newspapers is on the decline.
The Hollywood Critics Association has announced its 2022 TV award nominations. Props to them for recognizing some unconventional choices like Resident Alien and Chucky, and I think it's interesting that they separate streaming series from broadcast and cable (though I'm not entirely sure why), but any group that refuses to nominate Late Night with Seth Meyers in the talk show/variety categories will not get my respect.
HBO won't be participating in the upcoming Television Critics Association press tour for the first time in a while. Looks like they don't want to answer any difficult questions about the future of the network following the Warner Bros. Discovery merger. Not a great sign for those of us who love HBO.

"Jimmy was my fictional brother and my lifelong friend," Al Pacino said in a statement. "It's hard to believe that he won't be in the world anymore because he was so alive and daring. A great actor, a brilliant director and my dear friend. I loved him, gonna miss him."
"Jimmy was someone who stretched through my life longer and closer than any motion picture figure I've ever known," Francis Ford Coppola said. "From those earlier times working together on The Rain People, and throughout all the milestones of my life, his films and the many great roles he played will never be forgotten. He will always be my old friend from Sunnyside, my collaborator and one of the funniest people I've ever known."

Stan Cordray says:
Therese –
I think you've already mentioned one possibility for this fall's hate blog (I forget the show). But I would like to see a love blog option when you offer a vote to your readers: The Sopranos Season 1. Bad shows can be great fun, but when you tip someone off to something great, it feels like you wrote that great thing yourself. (Am I the only one who thinks that?) Yes, I'm in broken record territory (I've suggested blogging The Sopranos before). But in this era of not-too-horribly-priced streaming services, before the great consolidation (when we must again overpay for the stuff we don't want to get the stuff we want), HBOMax is not that bad a deal. In other words, this may be a great time for one more look at The Sopranos.
Or maybe Deadwood Season 1. Your choice.
Therese Odell says:
I love this idea, Stan. The Sopranos is the best television show ever, and I would love to have a good excuse to re-explore it. Let me think about it — between the House of Dragons and whatever Bachelor nonsense is happening, it might be hard to pull off. But like I said, let me chew it over. Maybe I'll put it to the vote with the rest … stay tuned.

The Auxiliary of the Rexford Fire District was originally formed in April 1964 through the efforts of twelve area women. The organization's purpose was to work for the benefit of the community and to assist the Fire Company during all fires, emergencies and community activities.
Meetings are the 4th Wednesday of each month (except July and August) starting at 7:00 PM at the Rexford Fire Station. We are always looking for new volunteers ages 16+.


Smart thermostat adoption continues to grow in the United States. At the end of 2017, an estimated 13% of households owned a smart thermostat, up from 11% in 2016 and up from just 5% in 2014. Homeowners are realizing significant savings in both energy expenses and energy consumption. Multiple studies indicate that users of smart thermostats like Nest, ecobee and Honeywell save an average of more than 10% on their energy bills.
While homeowners are becoming hip to the benefits of smart thermostats for primary residences, the benefits for vacation homes have been under-appreciated. Here's a look at some of the advantages in addition to increased energy efficiency.
When you're hundreds of miles away from your vacation home, it can be easy to worry about what's happening there. A smart thermostat can't check if the burners are on, but it can keep the temperature in your desired range and make sure that other things are under control. For instance, you'll be alerted if temperatures dip to extremes that could damage pipes or if the A/C needs servicing. When you're going to your vacation home, you can make your arrival more comfortable by setting the temperature ahead of time and checking the thermostat's local weather data.
With a smart thermostat, you'll know right away if something goes wrong with your climate system. It detects A/C and furnace problems immediately so you can address them before they escalate into costlier problems. Some monitor spikes in humidity, which could be a sign of a broken window or pipe. Aside from detecting issues, these devices keep track of actual system usage and send out reminders when routine maintenance should be performed, such as changing filters. This helps keep your system running as efficiently as possible.
Have guests staying at your vacation house? With smart thermostats, you can grant them whatever degree of flexibility you want. Maybe you want to allow them to set temperatures within a range. Or maybe you want to grant them full control but then revert back to previous settings when they leave. Beyond the temperature, you can restrict access to other thermostat settings as desired.
If you own vacation property in East Hampton or Southampton, you may be eligible for a free Nest thermostat or for significant rebates on already-installed Nest or Honeywell smart thermostats. The Smart Thermostat Program by South Fork Peak Savers offers customers incentives for enrolling in their conservation program. Customers also receive a cash bonus of $25 for every year that they remain enrolled in the program.
The program works by making minor, short-term adjustments to air conditioning via the smart thermostat during periods of heavy demand for electricity. These adjustments are usually in the range of 1-3° and have the effect of reducing strain on the electric system. Program members maintain ultimate control over their thermostat settings.
Follow the link below to see if you qualify for this program by South Fork Peak Savers. It's a clear win-win; you can help yourself save money and help the effort to keep Long Island's natural beauty intact!

Fraser Yachts Refresh 2017
Fraser Yachts
Fraser Yachts is the world's leading superyacht provider. With a service offering that ranges from yacht sales and charter to construction, crew and management, Fraser Yachts' unrivalled expertise has been at the forefront of the yachting industry since its launch in 1947.
Work Undertaken
Brand strategy, brand identity refresh, updated brand identity guidelines, boat show collateral, printed and digital sales & marketing collateral
It had been almost ten years since we had undertaken a complete strategic and visual overhaul of the Fraser Yachts' brand, and it was the right time to refresh the identity system. The brief was to consolidate the identity elements and to create a more contemporary and luxurious look & feel.
In addition to shortening the name to Fraser, we also created a new system for the symbol, introduced a new font and typographic approach, replaced the existing cerise with a more contemporary salmon, and created a consistent but flexible style for brochure covers.

MILKEN IN DC
Los Angeles View count:
Philanthropist and former financier Mike Milken, center, seems to have become more active in DC lately, including on the real estate scene. We snapped him recently at the Washington Economic Club with George Washington University president Steve Knapp and Carlyle Group co-founder David Rubenstein. Milken has bought an historic 38k SF former bank HQ near the White House for offices of the Milken Family Foundation to work more closely with policymakers on education and health issues. In his remarks, he offered moving reminiscences about living the American Dream (which he defined as one person can make a difference; you should make the difference for your community; and everyone should have an equal opportunity, including access to capital). Milken has certainly made a difference at GW: he's given $50M to its public health programs.

Faraday Porteur Bike
Merging the convenience of electric with the looks of a classic, the Faraday Porteur Bike ($3,500) manages to straddle the line between the two with grace. Thanks to lithium batteries that are cleverly hidden inside the frame, it looks like a traditional everyday rider, with only an on/off switch and an e-ink battery readout to belie its true nature — pedal, and it will automatically match your power, and when you're wanting to exert less effort, hit the boost button for a little extra help. Other features include LED headlights and taillights that are built into the frame and controlled by an ambient light sensor, and a large front rack that can hold 30 pound loads — or more than enough to carry your dinner and beers from the grocery store to your home.

Budnitz Beer Wrench
Kill two birds with one stone — so to speak — with the Budnitz Beer Wrench ($40). Crafted from titanium, it sports a 15mm spanner wrench on one end for removing rear axle bolts, internal hub bolts, and pitlock keys, two holes in the middle that work with the included titanium thumb screws to secure it to the water bottle mounts on your bike, and, of course, a bottle opener on the end opposite the wrench, engraved with the zen quote "The road is the destination". Indeed.
Trek Earl Bike
What would you expect a bike built for campus cruising to have? A sturdy steel frame? A single speed design? Built-in mounts for racks and fenders, so you can customize it to your book- or friend-hauling needs? Well, the Trek Earl Bike ($530) offers all of that, as well as a BMX-style seat and grips, Tektro brakes, nylon pedals, and one thing every self-respecting college ride needs: a built-in bottle opener.

DeLorean Bikes
You might not be able to buy a new DeLorean car anymore — at least, not until they start selling the Electric DeLorean — but that doesn't mean you can't buy a set of wheels bearing the iconic name. DeLorean Bikes ($5,500) are officially sanctioned by the DMC, and feature an Italian-made Columbus XCR tube frame — in stainless steel, of course — as well as a belt drive transmission, an 11-speed internally-geared hub, front and rear hydraulic disc brakes, a luminescent coating on the wheels, an Italian-made gel saddle, and a full carbon fork. The Anyday model is available now, with Speed and Cruise models to follow.
Audi E-Bike Wörthersee
Haven't been pleased with the performance or looks of previous electric bikes? Then start hoping the Audi E-Bike Wörthersee ($TBA) makes it into production. This prototype sport/trick cycle is powered by an electric motor that makes speeds of up to 50mph possible — assuming you don't mind some pedaling — or 31 mph in pure electric mode, and features a carbon fiber- reinforced polymer frame and wheels, an on-board computer that links to your smartphone to enable a whole host of advanced features, and LED light strips borrowed from the impossibly sexy e-Tron R8.

Claiming for brain injury - FAQs
Previously settled neonatal brain injury cases
In hospital, babies who are born prematurely, unwell or who are small for their gestational age will need specialist neonatal care.
This usually takes place in a neonatal unit (NNU) or special care baby unit (SCBU) or a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), depending on the treatment, monitoring and breathing support needed by the baby.
Do all newborn babies who need care on NICU, NNU or SCBU have a claim for negligence?
Newborn babies are admitted to the neonatal unit when they have or are at risk of a condition or complications which need specialist care, observation and treatment. Most commonly, a newborn baby may need neonatal unit care if they:
need help with breathing and keeping up their oxygen levels by ventilation or continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP);
are at risk of hypoglycaemia, needing help with feeding and monitoring to maintain healthy blood sugar and nutrition;
need heart-rate monitoring;
have jaundice, needing phototherapy to avoid developing kernicterus;
are recovering from or need treatment for infection;
are recovering from surgery or other treatment;
have suffered HIE (hypoxic ischaemic encephalopathy - brain damage from oxygen deprivation) and need therapeutic cooling;
were born prematurely, before 37 weeks of pregnancy;
had a low birthweight.
A newborn baby may have a medical negligence claim if they have suffered serious injury from:
perinatal asphyxia or HIE (oxygen deprivation immediately before, at or after birth);
meconium aspiration during and immediately after birth;
kernicterus from untreated jaundice;
delayed treatment of infection, such as group B strep or meningitis;
untreated hypoglycaemia;
vitamin K deficiency bleeding (VKDB) or haemorrhagic disease of the newborn;
hypocarbia.
1. Perinatal asphyxia or HIE
Perinatal asphyxia is the name given to a baby's lack of oxygen or breathing problems around the time of birth. The unborn baby (fetus) may not get enough oxygen just before birth, usually in the final hours or minutes of labour and during delivery. An unborn baby's heart-rate will be regularly monitored during a properly managed labour and delivery. If signs, such as abnormalities in the CTG fetal heart monitor recording, suggest that the baby is struggling to get enough oxygen, steps should be taken to deliver the baby quickly to avoid damage to the baby's brain.
A newborn baby may have difficulty breathing immediately after birth. Where a baby is known to be suffering from lack of oxygen at the time of birth, specialist neonatal nurses or paediatricians should be present at the birth to clear the newborn baby's airway and provide resuscitation or ventilation to help the baby breathe.
When a baby's brain is damaged from lack of oxygen around the time of birth, the type of brain damage is known as hypoxic ischaemic encephalopathy (meaning damage to the brain from lack of oxygen in the blood) or HIE.
2. Meconium aspiration
Meconium is the medical name for a newborn baby's first faeces. It is normal for a baby to pass meconium soon after birth. Meconium contains the material that the unborn baby ingested whilst it was in the womb, so it is thick, dark green, and sticky like tar, unlike the yellowish coloured nappies of a baby who is fed on milk.
During labour and delivery, meconium staining in the amniotic fluid can be one of the signs that the unborn baby is struggling to take in oxygen and suffering from fetal distress. If the newborn baby breathes in (inhales or aspirates) meconium, it can block the baby's airway. A baby who has aspirated meconium must have their airway cleared as soon as they are born, to allow them to breathe. This is why meconium can be both a sign and a cause of oxygen deprivation during or immediately after birth.
Delays in delivering a distressed baby or in clearing their airway and resuscitating immediately after birth prolong the period of oxygen deprivation (hypoxia/asphyxia). Without oxygen, the baby's brain can be damaged in minutes, leaving them with permanent brain damage and lifelong disability.
Meconium aspiration claims
A baby may have a claim if they suffered distress with meconium before birth or inhaled meconium at birth, which caused:
brain damage;
cerebral palsy;
developmental disability;
physical disability;
learning difficulties.
3. Kernicterus
Kernicterus is a rare but serious complication of jaundice. Jaundice is a yellow colouring of the skin. It happens when babies build up too much of a chemical called bilirubin in their blood. In most cases this condition goes away on its own, but some babies need phototherapy or exchange transfusion treatment. If the baby's bilirubin level is allowed to get too high it causes brain damage. Kernicterus is the name given to the pattern of damage that is done to the baby's brain by excessive levels of bilirubin.
Kernicterus compensation claims
Claims for kernicterus brain injury usually arise after delays in referral, diagnosis and treatment of babies with jaundice by hospital maternity or neonatal and paediatric staff, community midwives or GPs.
Kernicterus is dangerous but it is preventable with proper care. If your child has suffered kernicterus brain injury, you should seek advice from a specialist brain injury solicitor with experience of kernicterus compensation claims.
4. Infection - Group B streptococcus/meningitis
Severe neurological disability, such as cerebral palsy, can be caused by infection in pregnancy, during labour and birth, during the neonatal period (immediately after birth) or in the child's infancy. Cerebral palsy claims often arise from negligent delay in diagnosis and treatment of the infection.
Common infective causes of cerebral palsy or serious neurological disability include:
maternal infection during pregnancy, including group B streptococcus (GBS);
infection related to early or prolonged rupture of membranes (PROM/waters breaking);
neonatal (newborn) or childhood meningitis.
Where diagnosis and treatment of infection in a newborn baby is delayed, it can lead to life-threatening conditions and permanent disability, including:
septicaemia;
pneumonia;
meningitis;
blindness;
deafness;
serious learning disability.
Infection negligence claims
Claims arise when a baby's incorrectly treated infection causes permanent brain injury and lifelong, severe neurodevelopmental disability.
Our neonatal injury lawyers have helped clients who have been injured by negligent treatment for infection after:
delay or failure to recognise the signs and suspect or diagnose meningitis;
delay or failure to diagnose sepsis/septicaemia;
delay or failure to refer or admit the patient to hospital or to the neonatal unit;
failure or delay in treating urgently with iv antibiotics;
failed to monitor a pregnant woman with group B streptococcus (GBS);
failed to give antibiotics to a pregnant woman with group B streptococcus (GBS):
where the mother had a GBS urine infection in pregnancy;
where the mother's waters broke before 37 weeks gestation;
where the baby was delivered by caesarean section;
failed to monitor a baby at high risk of developing GBS infection.
5. Hypoglycaemia
Hypoglycaemia means low blood sugar (glucose). Neonatal hypoglycaemia is a common condition in newborn babies who are unable to maintain healthy blood sugar levels in the first few days of life before they are feeding regularly. Although common and treatable, neonatal hypoglycaemia can be dangerous if the baby's blood sugar is allowed to drop below safe levels. If untreated, it can cause permanent brain damage and disability. Hypoglycaemia can occur alongside other serious neonatal conditions.
Hypoglycaemia negligence claims
Claims arise when the baby suffers permanent brain injury and lifelong, severe neurodevelopmental disability.
Our neonatal injury lawyers have helped clients who have been permanently injured by neonatal hypoglycaemia following:
failure to recognise the risk factors of hypoglycaemia;
failure to monitor the baby's blood glucose levels;
delay or failure in treating the baby's blood sugar levels;
delay in obtaining the result of a blood glucose test;
failure or delay in acting on a low blood glucose result;
failure or delay in referring the baby to a paediatrician after concerns about hypoglycaemia have been identified;
delayed attendance or review by the paediatrician on a midwife's request to review a baby with hypoglycaemia;
failure or delay in admitting a baby with a diagnosis of hypoglycaemia to the neonatal unit;
failure or delay in administering intravenous glucose to the baby on the neonatal unit;
administration of insufficient glucose to correct the baby's hypoglycaemia;
failing to give the mother appropriate advice on what to watch out for and what to do on discharge of the baby.
6. Vitamin K deficiency bleeding (VKDB) or haemorrhagic disease of the newborn
Vitamin K deficiency bleeding (VKDB) or haemorrhagic disease of the newborn, is a rare blood clotting disorder. It affects 1 in 10,000 newborn babies. It is caused by a shortage of Vitamin K. At birth, babies don't have the intestinal bacteria that their body needs to create Vitamin K, a natural substance which helps our blood clot and keeps our bones strong. This leaves them at risk of Vitamin K deficiency bleeding (VKDB).
VKDB affects each baby differently. Some babies bleed in their urine, from their rectum or from the mucous membranes in their nose and gums. For some babies VKDB will be fatal. Around one third of babies with VKBD bleed into their brain, causing permanent brain injury and serious disability.
To protect babies from VKDB and the serious injuries that it causes, it is standard practice for newborn babies to be given Vitamin K, either by injection or orally, immediately after birth. Where the midwives or doctors fail to administer Vitamin K to a newborn baby and the baby suffers permanent injury from VKDB, they may be entitled to claim compensation for their injury.
Vitamin K Deficiency Bleeding (VKDB) negligence claims
Claims arise when a baby newborn baby suffers intracranial bleeding, brain injury and lifelong, severe disability.
Our neonatal injury lawyers have helped clients who have been permanently injured by VKDB following hospital or community midwife failure to administer Vitamin K at or immediately after birth.
7. Hypocarbia – injury from over-ventilation
Newborn babies who are unwell or premature sometimes need help to breathe. After initial resuscitation, they may be moved for intensive care to the NICU (neonatal intensive care unit) where their breathing will be controlled by a ventilator machine.
Ventilation must be carefully managed to avoid overventilation, in which the baby's carbon dioxide levels become dangerously low. This reduces the blood flow to the baby's brain, leading to:
brain damage, periventricular leukomalacia (PVL) or intraventricular haemorrhage/bleeding;
developmental delay;
visual impairment;
hearing loss;
damage to the baby's lungs.
Claims arise when the baby suffers serious injury after negligent care resulting in over-ventilation, including:
Failure to monitor the ventilator settings;
Failure to monitor the effects of ventilation on the baby's blood gases;
Failure to treat or correct abnormal carbon dioxide levels when they occur.
Can older children, teenagers or young adults claim for neonatal negligence?
Negligent neonatal care of a newborn baby can cause severe disability which lasts far beyond the baby's first few weeks. The injury may not be obvious straight away. Depending on when the damage to the child becomes apparent, our client families may come to us at different stages of their child's development.
In some cases, we meet the parents of an injured child shortly after birth. This usually happens when the parents know that something has gone wrong. They may have struggled to get urgent medical treatment for a child with infection, which develops into meningitis. Their baby's brain scan may show a type of injury that is caused by hospital negligence. For example, brain scans can show kernicterus (from untreated jaundice), intracranial bleeding (from lack of Vitamin K), or HIE (from lack of oxygen).
In other cases, such as where the baby has been injured by untreated neonatal hypoglycaemia, the injury may not be obvious straight away. Parents may not realise that their child has neurological disability until they fail to meet developmental milestones, or struggle to keep up with others in school.
In these cases, the parents may come to us when the child is of school age. Sometimes it is the injured teenager or young adult who comes to us directly to ask for help with investigating the cause of their disability.
Neonatal brain injury can leave the injured child with impairments which range from hardly noticeable subtle problems to a diagnosis of cerebral palsy with very severe disability. The full extent of the problems caused by the neonatal injury may only come to light as the child grows and develops.
We have helped children and teenagers with neonatal injury who now have:
spasticity;
athetosis;
severe cognitive damage;
learning disability;
delayed development and missed milestones;
impaired control of movement (motor control);
damage to their senses;
difficulty with feeding;
impaired speech and communication;
behavioural problems.

Claiming for Medical Negligence FAQs
How much compensation can you get for medical negligence?
In England and Wales, the law says that compensation for medical negligence should put the injured person back in the position that they would have been in but for the negligently caused injury, in so far as money can. This means that compensation is calculated carefully to reflect the injured individual's personal circumstances. Whilst the way in which we calculate damages follows certain mandatory principles and practises, the differences in our clients' injuries, pre-injury lifestyles and post-injury needs means that no two claims will be the same.
The compensation that an injured person receives from a medical negligence claim depends on:
the type and severity of the injury/disability that was caused by the negligent treatment;
the cost of meeting the individual's additional needs which arise from that injury, such as the cost of full-time care, necessary adaptations to housing, therapies, specialist equipment;
the financial losses that arise from that injury, such as loss of net income from being unable to work;
the length of time that the injured person will be affected by those costs or losses - for example, loss of earnings may be calculated to retirement age, whereas costs of care may continue to the end of life.
Financial costs and losses will include past losses – from the date of the injury to the date of settlement – and future loss, beginning at date of settlement and projected into the future. Past losses will also include interest.
All annual (recurring) costs, such as loss of earnings or the cost of care, are multiplied by a 'multiplier'. The 'multiplier' is a figure which represents the number of years that the cost or financial loss will be suffered. It has been adjusted by a 'discount rate' which is set by the government. The discount rate allows for the fact that the claimant (injured person making the claim) receives their lifetime's worth of compensation money early and can invest it and earn interest on it. The aim of the discount rate is to adjust the compensation paid for future losses to ensure that the claimant is neither over nor under-compensated.
At Boyes Turner we take great care in the way we investigate and gather evidence of our clients' needs and losses to ensure that our clients receive the maximum possible compensation for their injury. By ensuring that we understand each client's individual needs, we are able to claim the highest levels of compensation and negotiate the best possible settlements for them.
Where our client's life expectation is long or uncertain, it is natural for their family to worry about whether there will be enough money to pay for their care in the long-term future. Where guaranteed provision for lifelong care costs is a priority, we negotiate settlements which combine lump sum payments with guaranteed, index-linked, lifelong, annual payments (known as periodical payment orders or PPOs). The lump sum gives the client flexibility and helps pay for capital costs. The PPO annual payments ensure that the client will always have a regular income which covers the cost of their care. Payments made by PPO are tax-free.
Each settlement is skilfully negotiated and carefully structured to ensure that the compensation settlement is a source of financial security, certainty and peace of mind for our client and their family.
Where negligent medical treatment has resulted in the patient's death, depending on the individual's circumstances, their family (as individuals or via the deceased's estate) may be entitled to compensation for:
the deceased's pain and suffering from the date of negligent injury to the date of death;
any dependent family members' 'loss of dependency' on the deceased's income or services;
funeral costs and other costs arising from the deceased's injury and death;
a statutory bereavement payment.
How to make a medical negligence claim?
If you think that you or a family member have received negligent medical treatment which has caused serious injury or disability, we recommend that you speak to one of our friendly, experienced clinical negligence team as soon as possible. You can contact us by telephone or by email. Your enquiry will be handled confidentially and preliminary advice in relation to pursuing a claim will be given free of charge.
Our solicitors will:
ask you to tell us, briefly:
what has happened;
what you think went wrong;
about your injuries;
how the injury has affected various aspects of your life.
advise you about the limitation deadlines (time limits) which apply to your claim;
advise you whether we are able to help you investigate your claim.
If we are able to help you, we will;
ask for your medical records or authority to apply for them on your behalf;
discuss funding methods for making your claim and take steps to secure the best method of funding;
take a detailed statement from you which captures your recollections of the events which led to the injury and are relevant to the claim;
instruct medical experts to advise on breach of duty (to prove negligence) and causation;
we may also arrange a meeting with the experts and a barrister (counsel) to which you will be invited to attend.
Once our initial investigations have taken place, we will;
discuss with you the strengths and weaknesses (the merits) of your claim;
discuss with you our strategy for pursuing the claim;
discuss any further evidence that is needed to support your claim;
notify the defendant (hospital or doctor) of your intention to pursue a claim and invite them to respond, giving them an opportunity to admit liability, before court proceedings are issued.
If liability is admitted, we will enter judgment and apply for an interim payment as soon as possible to meet any urgent needs that you may have as a result of the negligently caused injury.
If liability is disputed, we will discuss with you the further steps that we need to take to progress your claim.
At all times our approachable, experienced clinical negligence lawyers will ensure that you are informed of any developments and understand the process. Your solicitor and our friendly support staff will always be available to discuss any concerns or queries that you might have along the way.
How long do medical negligence claims take?
The duration of a medical negligence claim depends on the individual circumstances of the client's case. The claim is likely to take less time to conclude where:
liability is admitted by the defendant (NHS hospital or doctor);
the injured person's injuries have stabilised and their prognosis (long-term outcome) is clear;
the injured person's needs, the costs of meeting those needs and other financial losses are straightforward and easy to assess clearly.
Circumstances which make the claim more complex and therefore take longer to resolve include:
where the defendant disputes that they were negligent or that the medical treatment given (even where admittedly negligent) caused the client's injury;
where the injured person is a child whose disability is expected to change with their growth and development over time;
where multiple experts in different disciplines are needed to assess complex injuries and the likely long-term outcome.
Our nationally acclaimed clinical negligence solicitors have helped hundreds of individuals and families whose lives have been devastated by medical negligence and we understand the impact that these tragic events and their financial consequences can have. We work hard to secure early admissions of liability and substantial interim payments so that we can begin to alleviate financial hardship and provide essential care, respite, specialist equipment, therapies and home adaptations long before the claim has settled. With liability judgments secured and interim funds in place, the individual and their family are able to focus on rebuilding their lives whilst we concentrate on valuing and negotiating settlement of the claim.
How to fund a medical negligence claim?
Legal Aid – for brain injuries at birth
As top-rated specialists in cerebral palsy and other serious neurological disability claims, we have access to Legal Aid funding for eligible clients. Where the child's case is funded by Legal Aid, the family can be sure that on the successful conclusion of the claim, their child will receive their full compensation without any deduction for legal costs. Where Legal Aid is available for a child with serious brain injury, we believe that it is in the child's best interests for their claim to be covered by Legal Aid.
This form of funding is only available to those who have suffered a brain injury, such as cerebral palsy, at birth or within the first few weeks of life. The child must have suffered their brain injury in England or Wales, and they must not have substantial funds of their own. The parents' finances are ignored for the child's application.
Legal Aid funding will only be given to a child where their claim is handled by a solicitor who has been approved as a specialist in cerebral palsy and child brain injury claims by the Legal Aid Agency.
No win no fee – conditional fee agreement (CFA)
Where Legal Aid is not available, we act for clinical negligence clients on a conditional fee agreement (CFA or 'no win no fee') basis. Just as the name says, no win no fee means that unless our client wins their case there are no legal fees for them to pay. If the case fails, we do not get paid for the time we have spent working on their case. Our client's liability for disbursements (such as expert and court fees) and any entitlement the defendant might have to legal costs is paid by an after-the-event insurance policy.
CFAs make it easier for people to afford a legal claim because they do not have to pay any upfront charges. There are no legal bills along the way. They pay nothing if they lose their claim. If they win, nothing is payable until the end of the case.
Legal Expense Insurance
If an injured person has legal expense insurance which was in place at the time that they were injured by medical negligence, their legal expense insurance policy might help with funding their claim. If you have legal expense insurance, you should let us know as soon as you are considering making a claim.
How can you prove medical negligence?
Medical negligence cases are legally and medically complex. If you have been seriously injured by medical negligence and want to claim compensation, it is essential that your solicitors specialise in clinical negligence and understand what is required, both legally and medically, to prove your claim.
The law says that a medical practitioner is negligent if they have acted in a way that no responsible body of medical opinion would regard as acceptable. That means that if the care given was of a reasonable standard the court will not regard it as negligent, whatever the result.
Where healthcare is found to be (legally) negligent, then the claimant (the person making the claim) must prove that their injury was caused or significantly worsened by the negligent care. This is important because the patient may already be very ill when they receive negligent medical care. In those circumstances, they must prove that their injury (and its financial consequences) would have been avoided or greatly reduced if correct treatment had been given. This aspect of the medical negligence claim is known as 'causation'. Causation must be proven, even if negligence is admitted, for the claim to succeed and compensation to be awarded.
Negligence and causation must be proven by supportive opinions from medical experts. We instruct experts in the same field of medicine as the negligent care to tell us whether the care that was given was of a reasonable standard. If negligence is proven, we ask medical specialists in the type of injury suffered, to confirm whether our client's injury was caused or made worse by the negligent treatment, or would have been reduced or avoided with correct care.
The medical experts make their assessments by examining the evidence:
the best evidence is often contained in the patient's medical records which were written contemporaneously (i.e. at the time of the treatment);
reports of investigations carried out by the NHS trust, GP practice or Healthcare Safety Investigation Branch (HSIB);
evidence from a coroner's inquest or pathologist if the patient died;
witness statements from our client and other witnesses;
any statements from the defendant's witnesses – the doctors, nurses and other healthcare providers – which have been disclosed by the defendant healthcare professional or the NHS organisation that employed them.
The experts may also back up their opinion with other reputable sources of professional information, such as:
guidelines published by The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE), relevant professional training bodies, such as the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (RCOG), or guidelines from the NHS Trust where the doctor worked;
research studies published in peer-reviewed, medical professional journals, such as the BMJ.
They will also draw on their own clinical experience when giving their opinion about whether the treatment given was to a reasonable standard and was responsible for causing the injury.
Is there a time limit for claiming medical negligence compensation?
The law states that, in most cases, someone who has been injured as a result of medical negligence has three years from the date of the negligence which caused the injury to issue court proceedings. If they fail to issue court proceedings within that time, their claim will be statute barred, meaning that they lose their right to bring a claim.
There are the following exceptions to the three-year rule:
if a child is injured before they are 18, their three-year deadline expires on their 21st birthday. In other words, their time doesn't start to run until they are 18;
if the injured person is mentally disabled (lacks mental capacity) then their time doesn't begin to run at all, unless their mental capacity is restored;
where the injured person has died as a result of negligent treatment, the three-year time limit expires three years after the date of their death;
if the injured person couldn't have known that they had been injured by negligence, the court may allow a valid claim to proceed. In these circumstances, the claim must be issued within three years of when the injured person first became aware (or should have suspected) that they had been injured by negligent care;
the court has a general discretion to extend the time limit in cases where none of the above exceptions apply, but only does so in exceptional circumstances.
Regardless of your time limit, we recommend that you contact us as soon as you can after the injury has taken place, even if at that stage you are only considering whether to make a claim. By contacting us early:
you may avoid later problems with deadlines;
we can advise you how to collect and preserve essential evidence;
we can ensure you have the best chance of securing your entitlement to full compensation for your claim.
Will I need to go to court to claim medical negligence compensation?
Our highly experienced medical negligence lawyers are recognised by Legal 500 and Chambers as experts in handling clinical negligence claims. Whilst we cannot guarantee that any particular claim will settle out of court, we take great care in investigating and preparing each claim that we take on. Our clients' claims usually settle successfully without the need for a contested trial.
Occasionally, cases can only be concluded by a formal court hearing, such as where:
NHS Resolution, the NHS's defence organisation, decides to test the courts' approach to a particular type of claim by taking a case all the way to court;
there is a point of law in a claim which needs clarification to avoid confusion is future cases;
where there is strong disagreement between the medical experts for each side about whether treatment amounted to negligence or caused the injury, needing the court to decide;
where there is a factual dispute about what happened between the parties which must be decided upon by the court before liability can be determined.
Where our client's claim is complicated by any of the above, we may advise our client that for the case to proceed it must go to a court hearing. Our caring and highly experienced solicitors and barristers ensure that our clients are always kept informed and supported.
Even in non-contested cases, there will be occasions when the case is brought for shorter hearings before the court, such as after a settlement for a child or brain injured adult without mental capacity takes place. In these cases, the lawyers for both sides present the agreed settlement to the court for the judge's approval.

"The journey with Julie was interesting! "
From a speculative inquiry to a life changing award, the journey with Julie Marsh was interesting. Julie kept me informed along the way explaining exactly what was going on and more importantly why. The team that was assembled certainly knew their stuff which meant I got all the necessary support to keep going. Thank you all.

"Successfully negotiated a full and fair compensation"
Boyes Turner staff were always helpful and quick to respond. Communicating from the other side of the world presented no problems. Boyes Turner secured generous early interim payments that allowed me to continue my (non-funded) medical treatment that otherwise I could never have afforded. My Boyes Turner solicitor successfully negotiated a full and fair compensation and continuation of funding for future medical treatment and associated costs giving me great peace of mind. Thank you so much Annabelle! I would recommend Boyes Turner solicitors. They are professional, courteous and helpful.
