One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesWindsor residents rely on a small circle of local clinics and specialists, plus larger Sonoma County hospital systems for more complex care. When a diagnosis is missed, a surgery goes wrong, or medication is mismanaged, the harm can follow a patient for years. California treats these claims differently than a typical injury case — MICRA sets tighter notice rules, a shorter window to act, and requires input from a qualified medical expert before a case can move forward. That doesn't mean every bad outcome qualifies, and it doesn't mean you're without options. If you or a family member were hurt by substandard care in Windsor, LawProactive can connect you, free of charge, with an independent attorney who reviews malpractice matters and can tell you honestly whether your situation warrants a closer look. There's no obligation, and attorneys in this network only get paid if your case recovers money.
California generally gives you one year from when you discover the harm, and never more than three years from the injury itself, to bring a claim. Missing either window can end a case regardless of its merits.
Before filing suit, California law requires sending the healthcare provider a 90-day notice of intent. An attorney familiar with this step can help make sure it's done correctly and on time.

Because a poor outcome alone doesn't prove malpractice, a qualified medical expert typically must confirm that care fell below an accepted standard. Attorneys in this network work with those experts to evaluate whether a claim holds up.
