Frequently Asked Questions
What is the time limit to file a medical malpractice lawsuit in Livermore California?
California Code of Civil Procedure Section 340.5 sets a three-year limit from the date of injury or one year from when you discovered the injury, whichever is earlier. There are exceptions for children and cases involving fraud. You should consult a lawyer promptly to avoid missing this deadline.
What damages can I recover in a California medical malpractice case?
You may recover economic damages like medical bills and lost wages. California law caps noneconomic damages for pain and suffering at 250,000 dollars per case. Punitive damages are rare and require proof of gross negligence or intentional harm.
Do I need a lawyer to file a medical malpractice claim in Livermore?
While not required by law, having a lawyer is strongly recommended due to complex California rules. These include a mandatory 90-day notice period before suing and a requirement to submit a certificate of merit from a medical expert. An attorney can help you meet these procedural steps.
