Yes. You must claim either within 3 years of the date of your medical negligence or 3 years from when you became aware of the negligence - this is known as the date of knowledge.
If you can't work out the date of knowledge, assume that the 3 year period time limit runs from the date of the medical negligence.
Time limits are extended if the claim involves a Protected Person, for example someone with a mental disorder who can’t manage their affairs.
If you’re claiming on behalf of a child, you can claim at any time before they turn 18 years old. After their 18th birthday, the 3 year time limit will start to run.
The strict time limits mean you shouldn’t delay getting specialist legal advice. The earlier you get help from a Medical Negligence Solicitor, the easier it will be to get evidence to support your claim and understand how Sepsis has affected you.
