What is a Medical Malpractice Lawsuit?
A medical malpractice lawsuit is a lawsuit that a victim of a medical mistake may file against the medical provider whose negligence caused their injury. This type of lawsuit can also be filed by a family member of someone who died as a result of a medical mistake or misconduct. The purpose of a medical malpractice lawsuit is to help victims recover fair compensation for their injuries or loss, as well as to hold any and all wrongdoers responsible.
What Will it Cost Me to Pursue a Medical Malpractice Lawsuit?
We work on a contingent fee basis, meaning that you will not pay us any attorneys fees unless or until we successfully recover compensation for you. Then, we collect an agreed-upon percentage of the total recovered. We understand that many victims do not have the money to fund a complex medical malpractice case, and a contingent fee basis gives all victims equal access to the courts.
What is the Statute of Limitations for an Illinois Medical Malpractice Lawsuit?
Generally, in Illinois, the deadline for filing a medical malpractice complaint, otherwise known as the statute of limitations, must be within two years from the time that the injury occurred, or from the time that the victim should have reasonably realized the injury. It is very important to note that these time limitations vary, so if you believe you may have a case you should contact a Chicago medical malpractice lawyer as soon as possible to ensure that you do not miss your opportunity to take action. These types of cases require a thorough investigation, so it is important to take action early.

Testimonials
Not only were they so professional but also so caring and thoughtful. It was very difficult going over the facts in our mother's case but they were so compassionate and understanding and allowed us to be with them every step of the way. We were able to sit in on the depositions and we were really able to see how hard they worked on our behalf.
