One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesMost people in Napa trust their care. When something goes wrong at a clinic in the Soscol Avenue corridor or during a hospital stay in Napa County, the first feeling is confusion rather than anger. Was this a known risk, or did someone miss something they should have caught? California law draws that line. A poor result by itself is not malpractice; there has to be a departure from the standard of care that caused harm, and a qualified medical expert almost always has to say so. Timing matters too. Under MICRA, you generally have one year from when you discovered the injury, and never more than three years from when it happened, plus a 90-day notice must go to the provider before a lawsuit is filed. LawProactive is not a law firm. We are a free service that connects Napa residents with an independent personal injury attorney who handles medical negligence claims on contingency, meaning no fee unless there is a recovery. You describe what happened; the attorney tells you whether it is worth pursuing.
One year from discovery, three years at the outside, and a 90-day notice before filing. An attorney can pin down which dates apply to your situation before any of them slip past.
California requires a qualified medical professional to support nearly every malpractice claim. The attorneys in our network know how to get records reviewed by the right specialty early, so you are not left guessing.
