One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesNewark residents rely on a mix of local clinics and larger Alameda County medical systems for everything from routine care to emergency treatment. When a provider misses a clear warning sign, mishandles a procedure, or fails to follow up properly, the harm can follow a patient long after they've left the exam room. California law does not treat every bad outcome as malpractice — a qualified medical expert generally has to confirm that the care fell below an accepted standard. That's a high bar, and it usually requires records, timelines, and expert review most people can't assemble alone. Our team handles medical malpractice claims in Newark and can review what happened, explain your options under MICRA's notice and filing rules, and tell you honestly whether pursuing a claim makes sense for your situation.
California generally gives you one year from when you discovered the harm, and never more than three years from the injury itself, to bring a claim. Miss that window and the right to sue can disappear, so an early consult matters.
Before a malpractice lawsuit can even be filed in California, the provider typically must receive 90 days' written notice. Our team is experienced with this step and can make sure it's done correctly and on time.

Because a poor outcome by itself isn't proof of malpractice, California claims generally need a qualified medical expert to confirm the care fell short. We can help determine whether that standard can realistically be met.
