One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesMost people in Merced who walk into a clinic or emergency room leave with the care they came for. Sometimes they don't. A missed diagnosis, a medication mix-up, or a surgical error can turn a treatable problem into a lasting one, and the person on the receiving end is left with questions nobody seems eager to answer. LawProactive exists for that moment. We are not a law firm. We are a free service that connects Merced County residents with an independent attorney who handles medical malpractice claims, and those attorneys work on contingency, meaning no fee unless there is a recovery. California's MICRA rules make these cases different from other injury claims: you generally have one year from when you discovered the harm, never more than three years from the injury, and you must give the provider 90 days' notice before filing. A qualified medical expert is nearly always needed to show the care fell below the accepted standard. A poor result by itself is not malpractice, but if you suspect something went wrong, a conversation costs nothing.
California generally allows one year from the date you discovered the harm, and no more than three years from the injury itself. Getting connected early protects that window.
Before a malpractice suit can be filed, the provider must receive 90 days' written notice of intent. An attorney in our network knows how that step affects your timeline.
We also connect clients with attorneys specializing in these practice areas

*No attorney's fee unless there is a recovery. The client may be responsible for court costs and case expenses.
Nearly every malpractice claim in California needs a qualified medical expert to explain how the care fell short. The attorneys we connect you with build cases around that requirement rather than guessing.
