One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesMedical care in San Francisco is dense and layered: emergency rooms, surgical suites, outpatient clinics, and specialty practices stacked across a city of roughly 865,000 people in San Francisco County. Most of that care goes well. When it doesn't—when a diagnosis is missed, a medication dose is wrong, or a surgeon operates on the wrong site—the harm can be lasting, and figuring out what actually happened is rarely simple. California's MICRA rules shape every step. You generally have one year from the date you discovered the injury to file, and no more than three years from the injury itself, with a 90-day notice sent to the provider before a lawsuit begins. A qualified medical expert almost always has to review the records and confirm that the standard of care was breached, because a poor result by itself is not malpractice. LawProactive is a free service. We are not a law firm; we connect San Francisco residents with an independent personal injury attorney who handles medical negligence cases on contingency, so there is no fee unless there is a recovery.
California generally allows one year from discovery and never more than three years from the injury, plus a 90-day pre-suit notice. Getting connected early protects that window.
A qualified medical expert is almost always required to show the standard of care was violated. The attorneys in our network know how to build that foundation.

*No attorney's fee unless there is a recovery. The client may be responsible for court costs and case expenses.
MICRA limits non-economic damages, and the cap rises each year. An attorney can explain how the current figure applies to your situation without overstating what a claim is worth.
