Frequently Asked Questions
What is the time limit to file a medical malpractice lawsuit in Minnesota?
In Minnesota, you generally have two years from the date the injury occurred or was discovered to file a medical malpractice lawsuit. There is also a four-year statute of repose from the date of the negligent act, with limited exceptions for minors or foreign objects left in the body.
What damages can I recover in a Minnesota medical malpractice case?
You may recover economic damages like medical bills and lost wages, as well as non-economic damages for pain and suffering. Minnesota caps non-economic damages at $400,000 in most cases, adjusted for inflation, though this cap does not apply to economic losses.
Do I need an expert witness for a medical malpractice case in Chaska?
Yes, Minnesota law requires you to submit an affidavit of expert review with your complaint. The expert must be a qualified healthcare professional who confirms that your claim has merit based on a review of the medical records.
