One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesPoint Arena is a small coastal town, and many residents rely on a limited set of local clinics or travel inland along Rt 1 and Lake Street for specialty care. When something goes wrong during treatment — a missed diagnosis, a surgical error, a medication mix-up — it can be hard to know whether the outcome was simply an unfortunate risk or the result of a provider falling below the accepted standard of care. California law recognizes that not every bad result is malpractice; a qualified medical expert typically has to review the case and confirm that the provider's conduct fell short of what a reasonably careful professional would have done. Our team reviews medical records, consults with experts, and explains whether a claim may be worth pursuing. There's no fee for an initial consultation, and no fee unless there's a recovery.
California generally gives patients one year from discovering the harm, and no more than three years from the injury itself, to bring a claim, plus a required 90-day pre-suit notice to the provider. We help make sure none of these deadlines are missed.
MICRA sets a cap on non-economic damages that adjusts upward each year, which affects how a claim is valued and negotiated. We can explain how this cap may apply to your specific circumstances.
