What Is a Sepsis Negligence Claim?
Sepsis is a life-threatening medical emergency. If doctors fail to recognise the signs or provide urgent treatment, the condition can rapidly lead to organ failure, septic shock, or death.
A sepsis negligence claim is the legal process of seeking compensation if you or a loved one suffered harm because healthcare professionals failed to diagnose or treat sepsis properly.
If you have been affected within the last three years, LITKRAFT can help you claim compensation and get the support you need.
Who Can Claim?
You may be entitled to bring a sepsis negligence claim if you are:
• A patient who suffered serious complications because sepsis was missed or treated too late
• A parent making a claim on behalf of a child harmed by sepsis negligence

A&E Negligence – discharging patients with early sepsis symptoms without proper investigations.
GP Negligence – failing to refer patients to hospital quickly when sepsis is suspected.
Hospital Negligence – inadequate monitoring of deteriorating patients or ignoring red-flag observations.
What Can You Claim For?
• Pain, suffering, and reduced quality of life
• Long-term complications such as organ damage, amputation, or disability

• Medical treatment, rehabilitation, and ongoing care
• Support and assistance provided by family members
• Travel expenses and other out-of-pocket costs

How Much Compensation Could You Receive?
The value of a sepsis negligence claim depends on:
• The severity of injury and long-term consequences
• Medical evidence and recovery outlook
• Financial losses, including lost earnings and future care costs
• Impact on daily life and independence
• Cost of future treatment, rehabilitation, and support
Solicitors rely on medical reports, financial documentation, and Judicial College Guidelines (JCG) to calculate fair and accurate settlements.

I am very impressed with the service provided. Thanks to LITKRAFT assistant I was able to prove my innocence. Third party was denying the damages suffered, but we never gave up, resulting in a settlement of compensation that I was really happy with.
If you had an accident – immediately call LITKRAFT. They are true professionals and it really shows, as they can tell you straight away if you have a case. When I had another accident I emailed all details to them and they called me back within 20 min.
Great company, fantastic staff who are just a phone call away to help. They were very patient in explaining every document received from solicitors or doctors. When we first started the claims process, the other party tried to deny liability, but LITKRAFT solicitor fought my case in court and won it. I was delighted with the process and I couldn’t have asked for anything more from LITKRAFT.
