et_flex_module\"><h5 class=\"et_pb_toggle_title\">What counts as medical malpractice?<\/h5><div class=\"et_pb_toggle_content et_flex_module\"><p>Medical malpractice happens when a doctor, nurse, hospital, or other healthcare provider fails to give proper care, and a patient is harmed as a result. This may include misdiagnosis, surgical mistakes, medication errors, birth injuries, or hospital negligence. To have a valid claim, the injury must be directly caused by the provider\u2019s mistake.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"et_pb_accordion_item_2 et_pb_accordion_item et_pb_toggle et_pb_module et_pb_toggle_close et_flex_module\"><h5 class=\"et_pb_toggle_title\">How long do I have to file a malpractice claim?<\/h5><div class=\"et_pb_toggle_content et_flex_module\"><p>In most cases, you have one year from the date you discovered (or should have discovered) the injury, and no more than three years from the date the injury occurred. Some exceptions may apply, so it\u2019s important to speak with an attorney as soon as possible.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"et_pb_accordion_item_3 et_pb_accordion_item et_pb_toggle et_pb_module et_pb_toggle_close et_flex_module\"><h5 class=\"et_pb_toggle_title\">How much does a malpractice lawyer cost?<\/h5><div class=\"et_pb_toggle_content et_flex_module\"><p>There is no upfront cost. Medical malpractice attorneys usually work on a contingency fee basis, which means you pay nothing unless your case is successful. If we don\u2019t win, you owe nothing.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"et_pb_accordion_item_4 et_pb_accordion_item et_pb_toggle et_pb_module et_pb_toggle_close et_flex_module\"><h5 class=\"et_pb_toggle_title\">What compensation can I get?<\/h5><div class=\"et_pb_toggle_content et_flex_module\"><p>You may be able to recover compensation for medical bills, future treatment, lost income, pain and suffering, and other related losses. The amount depends on the details of your case and the harm caused.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"et_pb_column_24 et_pb_column et-last-child et_flex_column et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough et_flex_column_12_24 et_flex_column_12_24_tablet et_flex_column_24_24_phone\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_accordion_1 et_pb_accordion et_pb_module et_flex_module\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_accordion_item_5 et_pb_accordion_item et_pb_toggle et_pb_module et_pb_toggle_open et_flex_module\"><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"et_pb_accordion_item_6 et_pb_accordion_item et_pb_toggle et_pb_module et_pb_toggle_close et_flex_module\"><h5 class=\"et_pb_toggle_title\">Do I have a medical malpractice case?<\/h5><div class=\"et_pb_toggle_content et_flex_module\"><p>If you were injured and believe the injury was caused by a medical provider\u2019s mistake, you may have a case. A medical malpractice attorney can review your records, consult medical experts, and determine whether negligence occurred.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"et_pb_accordion_item_7 et_pb_accordion_item et_pb_toggle et_pb_module et_pb_toggle_close et_flex_module\"><h5 class=\"et_pb_toggle_title\">How long does a medical malpractice lawsuit take?<\/h5><div class=\"et_pb_toggle_content et_flex_module\"><p>Medical malpractice cases can take several months to a few years, depending on the complexity of the case and whether it settles or goes to trial. While some cases resolve quickly, others require more time to reach a fair outcome.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"et_pb_accordion_item_8 et_pb_accordion_item et_pb_toggle et_pb_module et_pb_toggle_close et_flex_module\"><h5 class=\"et_pb_toggle_title\">What should I do if I suspect medical malpractice?<\/h5><div class=\"et_pb_toggle_content et_flex_module\"><p>Seek medical care right away to protect your health. Keep copies of medical records, prescriptions, and bills, and write down what happened. Then, contact a medical malpractice attorney as soon as possible to protect your rights.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"et_pb_accordion_item_9 et_pb_accordion_item et_pb_toggle et_pb_module et_pb_toggle_close et_flex_module\"><h5 class=\"et_pb_toggle_title\">Do I need proof to start a medical malpractice case?<\/h5><div class=\"et_pb_toggle_content et_flex_module\"><p>You do not need to have all the proof before contacting a lawyer. An experienced medical malpractice attorney can collect medical records, review your case, and work with medical experts to find out if a mistake was made. Your job is to share what happened \u2014 your legal team will handle the rest.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"et_pb_row_12 et_pb_row et_flex_row\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_column_25 et_pb_column et-last-child et_flex_column et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough et_flex_column_24_24 et_flex_column_24_24_tablet et_flex_column_24_24_phone\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_text_23 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_flex_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><p>Don\u2019t see your question?
