Freequently Asked Questions

Common Medical Malpractice Questions

What counts as medical malpractice?

Medical malpractice happens when a doctor, nurse, hospital, or other healthcare provider fails to give proper care, and a patient is harmed as a result. This may include misdiagnosis, surgical mistakes, medication errors, birth injuries, or hospital negligence. To have a valid claim, the injury must be directly caused by the provider’s mistake.

How long do I have to file a malpractice claim?

In most cases, you have one year from the date you discovered (or should have discovered) the injury, and no more than three years from the date the injury occurred. Some exceptions may apply, so it’s important to speak with an attorney as soon as possible.

How much does a malpractice lawyer cost?

There is no upfront cost. Medical malpractice attorneys usually work on a contingency fee basis, which means you pay nothing unless your case is successful. If we don’t win, you owe nothing.

What compensation can I get?

You may be able to recover compensation for medical bills, future treatment, lost income, pain and suffering, and other related losses. The amount depends on the details of your case and the harm caused.

Do I have a medical malpractice case?

If you were injured and believe the injury was caused by a medical provider’s mistake, you may have a case. A medical malpractice attorney can review your records, consult medical experts, and determine whether negligence occurred.

How long does a medical malpractice lawsuit take?

Medical malpractice cases can take several months to a few years, depending on the complexity of the case and whether it settles or goes to trial. While some cases resolve quickly, others require more time to reach a fair outcome.

What should I do if I suspect medical malpractice?

Seek medical care right away to protect your health. Keep copies of medical records, prescriptions, and bills, and write down what happened. Then, contact a medical malpractice attorney as soon as possible to protect your rights.

Do I need proof to start a medical malpractice case?

You do not need to have all the proof before contacting a lawyer. An experienced medical malpractice attorney can collect medical records, review your case, and work with medical experts to find out if a mistake was made. Your job is to share what happened — your legal team will handle the rest.
