One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesWoodside is a small, close-knit community in San Mateo County, and most residents drive into surrounding cities for hospital care, specialist visits, or surgery. When that care goes wrong — a delayed diagnosis, a surgical error, a medication mix-up — the aftermath can be confusing, especially with California's specific rules for these cases. Medical malpractice claims are handled differently than a typical injury case: California's MICRA law sets strict notice periods, expert requirements, and caps on certain damages. We handle medical malpractice claims and understand these rules. We can review what happened at no cost to you. A poor medical result isn't automatically malpractice, but if a provider deviated from accepted medical standards, it's worth having someone knowledgeable look at your records. Contact us so you can find out where you stand.
California generally gives you one year from when you discover the harm, and never more than three years from the injury itself, to file. Missing that window can end a claim before it starts, so timing matters from day one.
Before a lawsuit can be filed, California law requires sending the healthcare provider a formal notice at least 90 days in advance. Our team is familiar with this step and can help make sure it's done correctly and on time.

Because a bad outcome alone isn't proof of malpractice, California cases almost always need a qualified medical expert to establish that the standard of care was breached. We can help get that review process moving early on.
