Frequently Asked Questions
What is the time limit to file a medical malpractice lawsuit in California?
In California, you generally have three years from the date of injury or one year from the date you discovered the injury, whichever occurs first. There is also a maximum limit of three years for most cases. Exceptions exist for children and certain situations, so you should speak with a lawyer promptly.
What damages can I recover in a California medical malpractice case?
You can recover economic damages like medical bills and lost wages. California caps non-economic damages for pain and suffering 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 lawyer for a medical malpractice claim in El Segundo?
Yes, because California requires a certificate of merit from a medical expert before filing a lawsuit. The process involves complex rules and strict deadlines. A lawyer can help gather evidence, consult experts, and negotiate with insurance companies.
