Frequently Asked Questions
What is the statute of limitations for medical malpractice in Massachusetts?
In Massachusetts you generally have three years from the date of the injury to file a medical malpractice lawsuit. However there is a seven year statute of repose that bars claims filed more than seven years after the act of malpractice. Exceptions apply for foreign objects left in the body.
Do I need a certificate of merit to file a medical malpractice case in Massachusetts?
Yes Massachusetts requires a certificate of merit. Your attorney must file an affidavit from a qualified medical expert stating that the care provided fell below the accepted standard. This must be submitted within 90 days of filing the complaint.
What types of damages can I recover in a Salem medical malpractice case?
You can recover economic damages such as medical bills and lost wages. Non-economic damages like pain and suffering are capped at 500000 dollars in most cases unless there is a substantial or permanent loss of bodily function. Punitive damages are not available in Massachusetts medical malpractice cases.
