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 of the injury or from when you discovered the injury to file a lawsuit. This is called the statute of limitations. Exceptions may apply for minors or cases of foreign objects left in the body.
What is an affidavit of merit in a New Jersey medical malpractice case?
An affidavit of merit is a sworn statement from a qualified medical expert that your case has merit. New Jersey law requires this document to be filed within 60 days of the defendant's answer. Failure to provide it can result in dismissal of your case.
What damages can I recover in a New Jersey medical malpractice case?
You may recover economic damages like medical bills and lost wages, as well as non-economic damages for pain and suffering. New Jersey does not cap non-economic damages in medical malpractice cases, but punitive damages are limited to $350,000 or five times the compensatory damages, whichever is greater.
