In New Jersey, victims of medical malpractice have two (2) years from the day they were injured to file a malpractice claim against their doctor, nurse, or hospital. However, in circumstances where you would not have been able to tell if harm occurred (e.g. failure to diagnose), the window of time resets to two (2) years from the date of discovery. Once your window closes, you will have no way of claiming damages from your health care provider.
The strict deadlines for medical malpractice cases, combined with their complexity and the time-consuming nature of most cases, makes taking quick action vital. Call a lawyer as soon as possible to review your case—a New Jersey medical malpractice attorney would be able to understand if you have a viable claim, what can be done to fight for your damages, and what you need to do first.
It’s Time to Be Honest about Medical Mistakes
Successful medical malpractice verdicts are rare because hospitals don’t want their mistakes being made public—not because malpractice is rare. How often is medical malpractice reported? Studies from the Department of Health and Human Services found that treatment errors and mistakes are only reported in 14% of cases. In other words, nearly 9 in 10 mistakes are never reported to the patient. How common is medical malpractice? In another study, the Journal of the American Medical Association found that medical negligence was the third-leading cause of death in the U.S.
When patients try to file medical malpractice claims, they’re facing a well-prepared litigation machine designed to limit your compensation, keep you quiet, and hold no one responsible for what happened to you. To fight the hospital or medical provider you’ll need a firm that’s well-versed in representing medical malpractice cases. You need our New Jersey medical malpractice attorneys.
