What is Medical Malpractice?

If you or a loved one has experienced an injury, harm, or even a fatality due to medical malpractice, nurse attorney Eileen will fight to protect your rights.

Michigan Statute of Limitations

Michigan state law places a time limit, known as the statute of limitations on how long after the incident, you can file a claim. That time limit is two years from the date on which the incident occurred.

If you do not detect the injury immediately, you have up to six months after it has been detected to file your suit.

You are also required to notify the healthcare professional or provider of your intention to sue at least 182 days before the claim is filed. This is called a Notice of Intent to File.

Damage Caps

Michigan state law does not allow for punitive damages in a medical malpractice case. The current cap on non-economic damages that can be awarded is $440,000.

In cases where there is permanent paralysis or permanent damage to cognitive functions or a reproductive body part, the cap is $790,000.
