Medical Negligence Laws and Legal Steps in UAE
Medical negligence cases in UAE are governed by UAE Federal Law on Medical Liability No. 4 of 2016, UAE Federal Law No. 31 of 2021 on the Criminal Code, and UAE Federal Law No. 5 of 1985 Civil Code Law. These laws define the standards of care expected from medical professionals and the legal remedies available to patients who suffer due to negligence.
- Obtain an Independent Medical Report: Always get a parallel medical report from a trusted specialist to document the negligence and support your claim.
- Complain to the Medical Liability Committee: Submit a complaint to the Health Authority’s medical liability committee for official review and evaluation.
- Engage Expert Attorneys: Present facts clearly and allow our experienced medical negligence attorneys to review the committee report and manage your case for proper legal recourse.
This ensures your rights are protected while following the correct legal procedures under UAE medical negligence laws.
