Frequently Asked Questions
What is the time limit to file a medical malpractice claim in Connecticut?
In Connecticut, you generally have two years from the date the injury occurred or from when you discovered the injury to file a lawsuit. There is also a statute of repose that bars claims filed more than three years after the negligent act, with limited exceptions for minors or foreign objects left in the body.
What must I prove in a medical malpractice case in New Canaan?
You must show that the healthcare provider deviated from the accepted standard of care and that this deviation directly caused your injury. Connecticut requires a certificate of good faith from a similar healthcare provider before filing a lawsuit.
Can I sue a hospital or just a doctor in Connecticut?
You can sue both the individual healthcare provider and the hospital if the hospital was negligent, such as by failing to supervise staff or maintain safe conditions. Connecticut law allows claims against multiple parties when their actions contributed to your harm.
