Frequently Asked Questions
What is the time limit to file a medical malpractice lawsuit in New Jersey?
In New Jersey, you generally have two years from the date the injury occurred or was discovered to file a medical malpractice claim. This time limit is set by New Jersey Statute of Limitations N.J.S.A. 2A:14-2. Missing this deadline can bar you from recovering compensation.
Do I need an affidavit of merit in a New Jersey medical malpractice case?
Yes, New Jersey requires an affidavit of merit within 60 days after the defendant files an answer. This document must be from a qualified medical expert who confirms that your case has merit. Failure to provide it can lead to dismissal of your lawsuit.
