Hi everyone, I’m looking for advice from people who have experience with Swiss medical negligence cases or legal action involving federal asylum centres. In 2023, while staying at a federal asylum centre in Ticino, my psychiatric medication (Risperidone) was gradually reduced and then discontinued. To the best of my recollection, I was never assessed by a psychiatrist before this decision. I have since obtained my medical records, which document the medication changes as well as symptoms that developed during that period. At this stage, I’m not asking whether I would win a case. I simply want to know: Has anyone here pursued a medical negligence claim in Switzerland? Has anyone had experience bringing a claim against SEM or a federal asylum centre? How difficult was it to find a lawyer willing to take the case? Would you recommend consulting a lawyer specialising in medical liability or administrative law? I would really appreciate hearing about personal experiences or practical advice. Thank you. submitted by /u/EntireLettuce860
