Frequently Asked Questions
What is the time limit to file a medical malpractice lawsuit in Maryland?
In Maryland you generally have five years from the date of the alleged malpractice or three years from the date you discovered the injury, whichever is earlier. This is known as the statute of limitations. There are special rules for minors and certain cases so you should speak with a lawyer promptly.
Do I need a certificate of merit to sue a doctor in Bethesda?
Yes, Maryland law requires that your attorney file a certificate of a qualified medical expert with the complaint. This certificate states that the expert believes there is a reasonable basis for the claim. Without it the court will dismiss your case.
