Meningitis
Delay or failure to diagnose meningitis can have a life-changing impact upon the whole family. Our specialist meningitis team can explore whether a failure to diagnose or provide treatment should result in compensation for you and your loved ones.
Sepsis
Sepsis takes many lives unnecessarily each year and leaves many others with significant lifelong complications. With early diagnosis and treatment this can be avoided. You can pursue a claim for damages if early warning signs were ignored or sepsis shouldn’t have occurred in the first place.
Meet our Team
Our team of experienced lawyers specialise in meningitis and sepsis claims which can be complex and challenging. We have successfully pursued claims for damages for many families who have been through similar experiences to you.
Why bring a claim
If you or a member of your family has been left with a life-changing condition, future financial security enables you to access the provision of adequate support and services which may otherwise be unavailable to you. Compensation will enable you to maximise your future potential.
A claim for damages, depending upon the injury, may be significant and can include a claim for care, therapies and medical treatment, loss of earnings, accommodation and/or modifications to the home, assistive technology as well as other losses tailored to your needs. Where the negligent care results in the loss of a family member, compensation can never change events but is there to support other family members, particularly those who may have been financially dependent upon that individual.

How we can help
We can give you with an early indication as to whether a claim for damages is likely to be successful and can provide an initial free case review. We will seek an early admission of liability to ensure you have access to funds to help purchase care, equipment and any other support that is needed as early as possible. Following an admission of liability we will seek to ensure your claim for damages is fully explored to maximise the amount of compensation that you are entitled to. Our support extends beyond the lifetime of a case; we can provide advice in areas such as education and Court of Protection when required.
