One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesA hospital stay or a routine appointment in Orange is supposed to leave you better off, not worse. When a diagnosis is missed, a medication is mixed up, or a surgical error surfaces weeks later, the questions arrive faster than the answers. Orange County residents facing that situation deserve a straight explanation of how California handles these claims. Under MICRA, the clock is short: generally one year from the date you discovered the harm, and never more than three years from the injury. Before a lawsuit can be filed, the provider must receive 90 days' notice. Almost every case also depends on a qualified medical expert who can explain what the standard of care required and how it was breached, because a poor result on its own is not malpractice. LawProactive exists to take one task off your plate. We are not a law firm. We are a free service that connects you with an independent attorney who handles medical negligence cases and works on contingency, so there is no fee unless there is a recovery.
California generally gives you one year from discovering the harm, and in no case more than three years from the injury, plus a mandatory 90-day pre-suit notice. Getting connected early helps an attorney protect those dates.
A qualified medical expert is almost always required to show the standard of care was breached, since a bad outcome by itself is not malpractice. The attorneys in our network know how to arrange that review before deciding whether a claim can proceed.
