    THE ANSWERS

    Medical malpractice occurs when a healthcare provider deviates from the accepted standard of care and causes injury or death to a patient. This can include misdiagnosis, surgical errors, birth injuries, and more.

     

    In Georgia, the statute of limitations is generally two years from the date of injury or discovery of the injury. However, there are exceptions—especially in cases involving children—so it's best to consult an attorney right away.

     

    Yes. Georgia law requires an affidavit from a qualified medical expert stating there is evidence of negligence. We work with top professionals in relevant medical fields to build strong claims.

     

    In many cases, yes. If the doctor is an employee of the hospital or the facility failed to provide proper oversight, the institution may be held liable for damages.

     

    You may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, disability, and in cases of wrongful death, funeral costs and loss of companionship.

     

    If you believe your outcome was worsened by a healthcare provider’s mistake, contact our firm. We’ll conduct a thorough case review to determine if malpractice occurred.

     

    These cases can be complex and typically take 12 to 24 months, depending on the facts, the severity of the injury, and whether the case goes to trial.
