One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesMedical care in Sacramento County reaches nearly half a million city residents, and the vast majority of appointments, surgeries and hospital stays go the way they should. When something goes wrong, though, patients are often left with more questions than answers. Was the delay in reading that scan a judgment call, or a departure from what a careful provider would have done? California draws that line sharply: a poor result by itself is not malpractice. The question is whether the standard of care was breached and whether that breach caused harm. Answering it almost always requires a qualified medical expert to review the records. It also has to happen on a clock. Under MICRA, most claims must be filed within one year of discovering the injury and no later than three years from when it happened, with a 90-day notice sent to the provider before suit. LawProactive is not a law firm. We simply connect Sacramento patients and families, at no cost, with an independent attorney who handles these cases on contingency.
California generally gives you one year from the date you discovered the injury, and never more than three years from when it occurred. An attorney can also handle the 90-day pre-suit notice so the clock does not run out while you are still gathering records.
A qualified medical expert is almost always needed to show that care fell below the accepted standard. The attorneys we connect you with arrange that review before deciding whether a claim is worth pursuing.
