Claim it before someone else doesLynwood sits in the heart of south Los Angeles County, home to nearly 72,000 people who rely on local clinics, emergency rooms, and specialists to get care right. When a provider falls below the accepted standard of care, though, the harm can reshape a family's life — and the path forward is governed by a specific California law called MICRA. Under MICRA, a claim generally must be filed within one year of discovering the injury and never more than three years after it happened, with a 90-day notice sent to the provider before suit. The state also caps non-economic damages, a figure that rises annually. Nearly every case depends on a qualified medical expert who can explain what should have happened differently. It is worth knowing that a poor result by itself is not malpractice; the question is whether care was negligent. Our team handles these claims on a contingency basis — no fee unless there is a recovery.
California generally allows one year from the date you discovered the injury, and never more than three years from when it occurred. Contacting us early gives our team room to send the required 90-day notice before that window closes.
A qualified medical expert is almost always needed to show the standard of care was breached. Our team knows how to arrange that review before deciding whether a claim should move forward.
