Frequently Asked Questions
What is the statute of limitations for medical malpractice in Massachusetts?
In Massachusetts, you generally have three years from the date of the injury to file a medical malpractice lawsuit. However, if the injury was not discovered right away, the deadline may be extended to three years from the date of discovery, but no more than seven years from the date of the negligent act.
Do I need a certificate of merit to file a medical malpractice case in Massachusetts?
Yes, Massachusetts law requires a certificate of merit from a qualified medical expert. This document must state that the expert believes the care provided fell below accepted standards and caused your injury. It must be filed within 30 days after the defendant files their answer to your complaint.
What damages can I recover in a medical malpractice case in Ashland?
You may recover economic damages like medical bills and lost wages, as well as non-economic damages for pain and suffering. Massachusetts caps non-economic damages at 500,000 dollars in most cases, but this cap does not apply if the injury results in a substantial loss of function or death.
