Courtroom table with case files symbolising pressure sore litigation – Curtis Legal

Inquests shine a light on what went wrong—and why. The Alan Nippard inquest highlights familiar patterns in preventable pressure sore harm: missed risk assessments, patchy skin checks, gaps in repositioning, and documentation that doesn’t match the true picture.


For families, the lesson is practical: keep a simple timeline, note who you spoke to and when, and request copies of the charts. Evidence clarifies where standards slipped and whether harm was avoidable.


If you’re facing a similar situation, our pressure sore compensation hub walks through the steps from first concerns, to Letters of Claim, to settlement.


We instruct independent experts, review the records against standards, and pursue fair outcomes—often without court.
