One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesMore than a million people live in San Jose, and most will sit in a clinic, urgent care, or hospital room at some point this year. Nearly all of those visits go the way they should. When one doesn't—when a scan is misread, a medication is mixed up, or a warning sign is charted and then ignored—the person left dealing with the fallout is usually the patient and their family. California treats these cases differently from an ordinary injury claim. The MICRA framework sets its own clock: generally one year from when you discovered the harm, and never more than three years from the injury itself, with a 90-day notice sent to the provider before any lawsuit is filed. A qualified medical expert is nearly always needed to explain what the standard of care required and how it was missed. We handle medical malpractice claims on contingency, meaning no fee unless you recover.
You generally have one year from discovering the harm, and no more than three years from the injury, plus a 90-day notice must go to the provider before suit. Our team can map those dates against your timeline right away.
A poor outcome by itself is not a claim under California law; a qualified medical expert almost always has to show the standard of care was breached. We know how to line up that review before filing.

*No attorney's fee unless there is a recovery. The client may be responsible for court costs and case expenses.
California limits non-economic damages in malpractice cases, and that cap rises annually under MICRA. Working with an attorney who tracks the current figure matters when valuing what your claim may be worth—though no attorney can predict an exact number in advance.
