Beauchamps solicitor to address medical conference

Aidan Flahavan, associate solicitor in the Litigation & Dispute Resolution department at Beauchamps Solicitors, is set to speak at a major medical conference in Dublin this month.

Mr Flahavan, who specialises in the area of medical negligence, will address the two-day Eighth Annual Scientific Meeting of the Faculty of Pain Medicine, College of Anaesthetists of Ireland on Friday 22 January 2016.

He will speak about doctors’ liability in issuing fitness certificates to patients from 6pm-6.30pm in the College of Anaesthetists, Merrion Square.

Mr Flahavan told Irish Legal News that it was “a privilege to be speaking to such an eminent audience”.

He added: “With medical negligence claims likely to become increasingly commonplace in the coming years, the purpose of the presentation is to help doctors to avoid getting sued.”

The conference runs from 22-23 January and more information is available in the conference leaflet.
