Frequently Asked Questions
What is the statute of limitations for medical malpractice in North Carolina?
In North Carolina, 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 limit may be extended to one year from the date of discovery, but no more than four years from the date of the incident.
Do I need a certificate of merit to file a medical malpractice case in North Carolina?
Yes, North Carolina law requires that within 30 days of filing a medical malpractice complaint, your attorney must submit a certificate of merit. This certificate must include a written opinion from a qualified expert who states that the care provided did not meet the professional standard.

You may recover economic damages like medical bills and lost wages, as well as noneconomic damages for pain and suffering. North Carolina caps noneconomic damages at $500,000 for most medical malpractice cases, though the cap may be higher in cases involving catastrophic injury or death.
