Frequently Asked Questions
What is the time limit to file a medical malpractice lawsuit in Connecticut?
In Connecticut, you generally have two years from the date of the injury or from when you discovered the injury to file a lawsuit. However, there is an absolute deadline of three years from the date of the negligent act, regardless of discovery. This is set by Connecticut General Statutes Section 52-584.
Do I need a certificate of merit to file a medical malpractice case in Connecticut?
Yes, Connecticut requires a certificate of merit. Your lawyer must obtain a written opinion from a similar healthcare provider stating that there is evidence of medical negligence. This opinion must be filed within 90 days of the lawsuit being initiated.
What damages can I recover in a Connecticut medical malpractice case?
You can recover economic damages like medical bills and lost wages, as well as non-economic damages for pain and suffering. Connecticut does not cap non-economic damages in most medical malpractice cases, but there are specific limits for cases involving emergency room care.
