Claim it before someone else doesCupertino residents rely on a mix of local clinics and larger Santa Clara County medical systems, and most visits go the way they should. But when a diagnosis is missed, a surgical step is skipped, or medication is mismanaged, the resulting harm can be serious and lasting. California treats these cases differently than an ordinary injury claim — a bad result by itself doesn't establish fault, and the law requires a qualified medical expert to weigh in before a case can move forward. There's also a 90-day notice requirement before a lawsuit can be filed, and the filing window is generally one year from when the harm is discovered, capped at three years from the injury itself. We handle medical malpractice claims directly and understand these specific rules, so you don't have to sort them out alone.
California generally allows one year from when you discover the harm, but no more than three years from the injury, so waiting can quietly close the door on a claim.
Before a malpractice lawsuit can even be filed, California requires a formal 90-day notice to the provider, a step we can help prepare correctly.
