Frequently Asked Questions

What is the statute of limitations for medical malpractice in Minnesota?
In Minnesota, you generally have four years from the date of the alleged malpractice to file a lawsuit. However, if you did not discover the injury right away, you may have two years from the date you discovered or should have discovered the injury. No lawsuit can be filed more than seven years after the date of the alleged malpractice.
What types of damages can I recover in a medical malpractice case in Prior Lake?
You can seek compensation for economic damages like medical bills, lost wages, and future care costs. You may also recover non-economic damages for pain and suffering, but Minnesota caps non-economic damages in medical malpractice cases at $400,000 for most claims, adjusted for inflation.
Do I need an expert witness for a medical malpractice case in Minnesota?
Yes, Minnesota law generally requires you to provide an affidavit from a qualified medical expert stating that the healthcare provider deviated from the standard of care and caused your injury. This expert must be licensed and actively practicing in the same field as the defendant.
