Frequently Asked Questions
What is the time limit to file a medical malpractice lawsuit in Aliso Viejo?
In California, you generally have one year from the date you discover the injury, but no more than three years from the date of the malpractice. This is known as the statute of limitations. Exceptions may apply for minors or cases involving foreign objects left in the body.
What damages can I recover in a medical malpractice case in California?
You may recover economic damages like medical bills and lost wages. California also allows non-economic damages for pain and suffering, but caps them at 250,000 dollars per claim. Punitive damages are rare and only available in cases of gross negligence or intentional harm.
Do I need a certificate of merit to file a medical malpractice claim in California?
Yes. California requires that your attorney file a certificate of merit with the complaint. This means a qualified medical expert must review your case and confirm there is reasonable cause to believe malpractice occurred. This helps prevent frivolous lawsuits.
