Frequently Asked Questions About Medical Malpractice
How do I know if I have a valid medical malpractice case?
If a healthcare provider’s error caused significant harm and deviated from accepted medical standards, you may have a case. A malpractice attorney can review your records and determine your legal options.
What is the time limit for filing a malpractice lawsuit?
Most states have a statute of limitations for filing medical malpractice claims, typically within 2 years from the date of the injury or discovery of the error. Prompt legal action is essential.
Can I sue a hospital for medical malpractice?
Yes. Hospitals can be held liable for negligence by employees such as nurses, technicians, or staff physicians, as well as for systemic failures in care.
What is informed consent, and why does it matter?
Informed consent means you were fully informed of a procedure’s risks and agreed to proceed. If you were not properly informed and experienced harm, you may have a claim.
What if the doctor is claiming the outcome was unavoidable?
Even complex medical conditions can be worsened by negligent care. We work with medical experts to determine whether your injuries were truly unavoidable—or the result of substandard treatment.
