Frequently Asked Questions
What is the time limit to file a medical malpractice claim in Maine?
In Maine, the statute of limitations for medical malpractice is generally three years from the date of the negligent act or two years from the date the injury was discovered, whichever comes first. There is an absolute six-year deadline from the act of negligence. You should contact a lawyer promptly to protect your rights.
Do I need a certificate of merit to file a lawsuit in Maine?
Yes, Maine law requires that before filing a medical malpractice lawsuit, your attorney must file a certificate of merit. This is a sworn statement from a qualified medical expert confirming that there is a reasonable basis for the claim. This requirement helps prevent frivolous lawsuits.
What damages can I recover in a Maine medical malpractice case?
You may recover economic damages like medical bills and lost wages, and non-economic damages for pain and suffering. Maine caps non-economic damages at 400,000 dollars for most cases, but this cap can be higher in cases of severe injury or death. Punitive damages are also limited.
