Frequently Asked Questions
What is the time limit to file a medical malpractice lawsuit in Michigan?
In Michigan, you generally have two years from the date of the injury or six months from when you discovered the injury to file a claim. However, the total time cannot exceed six years from the date of the negligent act. Exceptions exist for minors and certain cases.
Do I need an affidavit of merit in a Michigan medical malpractice case?
Yes, Michigan law requires that you file an affidavit of merit with your complaint. This affidavit must be signed by a qualified health professional who states that there is a reasonable basis for the claim. This helps prevent frivolous lawsuits.
