Frequently Asked Questions
What is the statute of limitations for medical malpractice in Nebraska?
In Nebraska, you generally have two years from the date of the alleged malpractice to file a lawsuit. If you did not discover the injury right away, you have one year from the date of discovery, but no more than ten years from the date of the act. This is set by Nebraska Revised Statute 25-222.
What damages can I recover in a Nebraska medical malpractice case?
You can recover economic damages like medical bills and lost wages. Nebraska also allows non-economic damages for pain and suffering, but there is a cap of $500,000 on non-economic damages in medical malpractice cases. Punitive damages are not allowed in Nebraska medical malpractice claims.
Do I need an expert witness for a medical malpractice case in Nebraska?
Yes, Nebraska law generally requires you to provide an expert witness who can testify that the healthcare provider deviated from the accepted standard of care. This expert must be licensed in the same field of medicine as the defendant. Without a qualified expert, your case will likely be dismissed.
