Frequently Asked Questions
What is the statute of limitations for medical malpractice in Kansas?
In Kansas, you generally have two years from the date of the alleged malpractice to file a lawsuit. However, no case can be filed more than four years after the act, regardless of when the injury was discovered. Exceptions exist for minors and certain circumstances, so it is important to consult a lawyer promptly.
What damages can I recover in a Kansas medical malpractice case?
You may recover economic damages like medical bills and lost wages, as well as noneconomic damages for pain and suffering. Kansas caps noneconomic damages at $250,000 per claim, adjusted for inflation. Punitive damages are also limited and require clear and convincing evidence of gross negligence.
