Frequently Asked Questions
What is the statute of limitations for medical malpractice in Connecticut?
In Connecticut, you generally have two years from the date of the injury to file a medical malpractice lawsuit. However, there is a maximum of three years from the date of the negligent act, regardless of when the injury is discovered. Exceptions may apply for minors or cases of fraud.
Do I need a certificate of merit to file a medical malpractice case in Connecticut?
Yes, Connecticut law requires a certificate of merit. Your attorney must obtain a written opinion from a similar healthcare provider stating that there appears to be evidence of medical negligence. This opinion must be filed within 90 days of the lawsuit being filed.
What damages can I recover in a Connecticut medical malpractice case?
You may recover economic damages like medical bills and lost wages, as well as noneconomic damages for pain and suffering. Connecticut caps noneconomic damages at 250,000 dollars for claims against emergency room providers and 500,000 dollars for other providers, but these caps do not apply to economic losses.
