It is important to contact a lawyer soon after the accident or illness. California imposes a statute of limitations which may be as short as one year on medical malpractice lawsuits. State law also requires a pre-suit filing affirmed by a licensed physician in the same field who can attest that medical treatment fell below the accepted standard of care.
In filing a medical negligence or wrongful death lawsuit, TIL works with seasoned attorneys at the well-known Southern California law firm, Lee & Kaufman LLP. We consult with a number of experts on the medical aspects of the case, as well as vocational rehabilitation and economics experts to determine the full and appropriate damages in the case. Damages include medical expenses (actual and future), lost income, loss of enjoyment, and pain and suffering. Death by hospital malpractice warrants medical and funeral expenses, lost earnings, and loss of consortium to loved ones. Contact TIL to arrange a free consultation.
