Claim it before someone else doesHayward is home to roughly 158,000 people, and on any given day many of them are sitting in a waiting room, recovering from surgery, or picking up a prescription somewhere in Alameda County. Most of that care goes fine. Sometimes it does not, and the person left dealing with the consequences has no easy way to tell an unavoidable complication from a preventable mistake. That distinction matters under California law. A poor result by itself is not malpractice; there has to be a departure from the accepted standard of care, and a qualified medical expert almost always has to say so. California's MICRA rules also set a short clock, generally one year from when you discovered the harm and no more than three years from the injury, along with a 90-day notice to the provider before a lawsuit can be filed. LawProactive is not a law firm. We are a free service that connects Hayward residents with an independent attorney who handles these cases on contingency, so you only pay a fee if there is a recovery.
MICRA generally allows one year from discovery of the harm and never more than three years from the injury, and a 90-day notice must go to the provider before suit. Getting connected early keeps those options open.
