  • @bcubed72 In NY, most experienced med mal attorneys will not accept a case that does not have significant and/or permanent injuries. That does not mean that you do not have a valid case. You may have wrongdoing that caused some type of injury. However, if it's temporary it's difficult to justify taking on that type of case. An attorney invests hundreds and thousands of hours of their time to prosecute medical malpractice cases. It often becomes a financial decision.

  • Significant AND permanent? So, even if one suffers acutely due to negligence, if one ultimately returns to full function, one can't sue?

    In NY or elsewhere too?

  • You are absolutely correct. I should have included that as number 6.

  • Number Six: You waited too long, and the statute of limitations now bars your claim!
