How do I Know if I Have a Medical Malpractice Lawsuit?
A Chicago medical malpractice lawsuit may be filed when a victim is catastrophically injured by a medical mistake that occurred because of the carelessness or inexperience of a doctor, dentist, nursing home worker, nurse, hospital technician or other medical professional. These types of legal actions hold wrongdoers responsible and recover compensatory damages for seriously injured victims or the surviving family members of people wrongfully killed by medical malpractice.
What Will a Medical Malpractice Lawsuit Cost Me?
We will not charge you anything unless or until we succeed in recovering monetary compensation for you, in which case we collect a percentage of the verdict or settlement for our work on your behalf. This is known as a contingency fee arrangement, and it allows injured victims of medical malpractice fair access to the courts, even if they do not have the money to pay for a lawsuit up-front.
How Long do I Have to File a Medical Malpractice Lawsuit?
Typically, victims must file an Illinois medical malpractice lawsuit within two years of realizing the injury, or two years from when the injury should have reasonably been realized by the victim. This deadline is known as the statute of limitations.
The two-year statute of limitations does not apply to every type of medical malpractice case, and the time you have to file may vary based the circumstances surrounding your case. These types of lawsuits require lengthy investigations, so it is important that you take action early. It is crucial to contact a medical malpractice attorney in Chicago as soon as you think you might have a lawsuit in order to preserve your rights and avoid missing your deadline.
