Medical malpractice / Los Angeles & Orange County
When medical care causes harm.
Doctors and hospitals have insurers and defense firms behind them. You deserve the same firepower on your side.
Overview
Medical mistakes are not bad luck.
When a provider falls below the standard of care and someone gets hurt, California law gives patients and families the right to hold them accountable.
These cases are technical and fiercely defended. We work with qualified medical experts to review the records, establish what should have happened and build a case that stands up in front of a jury.
If you lost a loved one to medical negligence, we also represent families in wrongful death claims.

Questions
Medical Malpractice, answered.
General information only, not legal advice for your situation. For that, book a free consultation.
How long do I have to file in California?
Not long. In many cases you have one year from when you discovered the injury, and no more than three years from the date of injury, with limited exceptions. Speak with a lawyer as soon as you suspect something went wrong.
Is there a cap on damages?
California’s MICRA law caps non-economic damages, such as pain and suffering, in medical malpractice cases. The cap was raised in 2023 and increases each year. Economic damages like medical bills and lost income are not capped.
What does it cost to hire you?
The consultation is free. We explain fees clearly, in writing, before you decide anything.
Do I need my medical records first?
No. If we take your case, we obtain the records for you. Bring whatever you have.
