One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesLos Altos Hills residents often travel to nearby Santa Clara County hospitals and clinics for surgery, imaging, or specialist care, and most of those visits go the way they should. But when a physician, surgeon, or hospital staff member deviates from the accepted standard of care, the results can be lasting — a missed diagnosis, a surgical complication, or a medication mix-up that changes daily life. Because Los Altos Hills is a small, close-knit community, many residents rely on the same regional medical centers, which means these cases require careful review of records from providers who may serve thousands of patients across the county. LawProactive doesn't practice law or evaluate your case ourselves. We simply listen to what happened, gather the basics, and connect you with an independent attorney in our network who has experience with California medical malpractice claims and works on contingency, so there's no upfront cost to find out where you stand.
California's MICRA rules generally give you one year from when you discovered the harm, but never more than three years from the injury itself. An attorney can help track which clock applies to your situation before it runs out.
Before filing suit, California law requires giving the healthcare provider 90 days' advance notice. Missing this step can delay or complicate a claim, so early legal guidance matters.
