Frequently Asked Questions
What is the time limit to file a medical malpractice lawsuit in Garner North Carolina?
In North Carolina, you generally have three years from the date of the injury to file a claim. If you did not discover the injury right away, you have one year from discovery, but no more than four years from the date of the negligent act. This is called the statute of repose.
Do I need a certificate of merit to sue for medical malpractice in North Carolina?
Yes, North Carolina law requires your attorney to file a certificate of merit with the complaint. This certificate must include a statement from a qualified medical expert who has reviewed your case and believes the care you received fell below the accepted standard.
What damages can I recover in a Garner medical malpractice case?
You can recover economic damages like medical bills and lost wages, and non-economic damages for pain and suffering. However, North Carolina caps non-economic damages at $500,000 for most medical malpractice cases, and at $1,000,000 for cases involving catastrophic injury or death.
