One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesFontana is home to more than 207,000 people, and most of them will trust a doctor, nurse, or hospital in San Bernardino County at some point. Nearly all of that care goes as it should. Once in a while it does not, and the person left dealing with the aftermath is rarely in a position to figure out whether a mistake was made or whether the result was simply an unavoidable risk. That distinction matters a great deal under California law. A poor outcome by itself is not malpractice; the question is whether a provider fell below the accepted standard of care and caused harm as a result. Answering that almost always takes a qualified medical expert, plus records that can be slow to arrive. California's MICRA rules add short clocks and a required 90-day notice before suit. LawProactive is not a law firm. We simply connect you, for free, with an independent attorney who handles these cases on contingency, so you can find out where you stand without paying anything up front.
In most cases you have one year from when you discovered the injury, and never more than three years from when it happened. A connected attorney can spot which date controls before it slips by.
California requires written notice to each provider at least 90 days before a malpractice lawsuit is filed. Getting that step right early keeps your options open.

*No attorney's fee unless there is a recovery. The client may be responsible for court costs and case expenses.
These claims almost always need a qualified medical expert to confirm that care fell below the standard. Network attorneys work on contingency, so that review is part of the representation and you owe nothing unless there is a recovery.
