One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesFort Jones sits in a rural stretch of Siskiyou County, where residents often travel some distance for hospital care, specialists, or surgical procedures. When a diagnosis is missed, a medication is mishandled, or a treatment decision causes harm, families are frequently left with more questions than answers. California law treats medical malpractice claims differently than typical injury cases — there are shorter notice windows, specific expert requirements, and caps that adjust over time. We handle medical malpractice claims and can review your medical records, evaluate whether the care fell below an accepted standard, and explain what options may exist. There's no cost to start a conversation, and no obligation to move forward. A bad medical outcome by itself isn't proof of malpractice, which is exactly why a qualified review matters before any conclusions are drawn.
California generally gives one year from when you discover the harm, and no more than three years from the injury itself, to bring a claim. Missing these windows can end a case regardless of its merits.
Before a malpractice lawsuit can even be filed, California law requires a 90-day pre-suit notice to the healthcare provider. Our team is familiar with this process and can help make sure it's handled correctly and on time.

California nearly always requires a qualified medical expert to establish that care fell below an accepted standard. This is part of why an early, honest evaluation matters before assuming a bad outcome equals malpractice.
