Frequently Asked Questions
What is the statute of limitations for medical malpractice in California?
In California you generally have one year from the date you discover the injury to file a claim. There is also a hard deadline of three years from the date of the malpractice incident regardless of discovery. Exceptions exist for children and cases involving foreign objects left in the body.
How do I know if I have a valid medical malpractice case in San Rafael?
A valid case requires proof that a healthcare provider breached the standard of care and that breach directly caused your injury. You need a qualified expert to review your medical records and confirm that the care fell below accepted medical practice. Not all bad outcomes are malpractice.
What damages can I recover in a California medical malpractice lawsuit?
California law allows recovery for economic damages like medical bills and lost wages with no cap. Non-economic damages for pain and suffering are capped at 250,000 dollars for most cases. Punitive damages are rare and only available in cases of gross negligence or intentional harm.
