The four elements of a medical malpractice claim are the health care provider owed a duty of care, breached that duty, the breach caused harm, and the patient suffered damages as a result. If your situation has these elements, you likely have a case.

In Georgia, the statute of limitations for filing a medical malpractice claim is typically two years from the event of malpractice or the discovery of the resulting injuries.

Compensation in a medical malpractice case can include medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and potentially punitive damages. Every case is unique, and we are prepared to fight for the compensation you deserve.

The duration of a medical malpractice lawsuit can vary significantly. It may take anywhere from several months to a few years, depending on case complexity, court schedules, and the willingness of parties to settle. Working with an experienced attorney can help streamline the process.
