Frequently Asked Questions
What is the statute of limitations for medical malpractice in New York?
In New York, you generally have 30 months from the date of the malpractice or from the end of continuous treatment to file a lawsuit. For cases involving a foreign object left in the body, the deadline is one year from discovery. It is important to act quickly to preserve your rights.
What types of damages can I recover in a New York medical malpractice case?
You may recover economic damages like medical expenses and lost wages, and non-economic damages for pain and suffering. New York does not cap damages in medical malpractice cases, but there are limits on punitive damages and certain structured payment rules for large awards.
How do I prove medical malpractice in New York?
You must show that a healthcare provider deviated from accepted medical standards and that this deviation directly caused your injury. This typically requires expert testimony from a qualified medical professional. A lawyer can help gather records and secure the necessary experts.
