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 or from when you discovered the injury to file a medical malpractice lawsuit. However, no claim can be filed more than seven years after the negligent act, except in cases involving a foreign object left in the body.
Do I need a medical malpractice lawyer in Sandwich for a minor injury?
You should consult a lawyer if you suspect negligence caused harm. Massachusetts requires a tribunal review for most malpractice claims, where a panel decides if your case has merit. A lawyer can help prepare the required medical affidavit and navigate this process.
What damages can I recover in a Massachusetts medical malpractice case?
You may recover economic damages like medical bills and lost wages, and non-economic damages for pain and suffering. Massachusetts caps non-economic damages at 500,000 dollars for most cases, though the cap may be higher for severe injuries or wrongful death.
