As experienced New York medical malpractice attorneys, we can help you determine if you have a case by thoroughly reviewing the facts and consulting with medical experts.
In New York, you generally have two and a half years from the date of the malpractice incident to file a lawsuit. However, there are exceptions, such as cases involving foreign objects left in the body, continuous treatment, or cases involving minors. It's crucial to consult a knowledgeable medical malpractice attorney in New York as soon as possible to ensure that your claim is filed within the statute of limitations.
