How do you go about filing a medical malpractice case in California? The answer to that is that you first want to make sure you go to a lawyer with experience handling these cases. They’re technical, they require a lot of expertise, and they require a lawyer who has experience with it and who knows experts to review your case.
Having said that, you should expect that any good lawyer will take some time and review the case. It’s not like a very straightforward car accident or something. We’re going to need to get your medical records, we’re going to need to go through them, and we’re going to need to analyze them with an expert in the kind of medicine that’s at play here—whether it be emergency room medicine or surgery—and that’s going to take some time.
Once we get through that vetting process, which is important, then we’ll go forward. At that point, we really take over. We handle all the expenses—there’s no risk to you. We only get compensated if we prevail.
