Frequently Asked Questions
What is the time limit to file a medical malpractice claim in Washington?
In Washington, you generally have three years from the date of the injury to file a lawsuit. However, if the injury was not discovered right away, the limit is one year from the date you discovered or should have discovered the harm. There is also an eight-year maximum from the date of the incident for most cases.
What damages can I recover in a Bremerton medical malpractice case?
You may recover economic damages like medical bills and lost wages, as well as non-economic damages for pain and suffering. Washington law limits non-economic damages to a cap that adjusts annually, currently around $500,000 for most cases. Punitive damages are not allowed in Washington.
Do I need a certificate of merit to file a medical malpractice lawsuit in Washington?
Yes, Washington requires a certificate of merit from a qualified medical expert. This expert must review your case and state that the healthcare provider likely failed to meet the standard of care. Your lawyer will help obtain this certificate before filing the lawsuit.
