If you have suffered any of these or other devastating injuries from your cosmetic surgery procedure, you should speak with one of our medical malpractice attorneys about seeking compensation for your medical expenses and recovery.
The statute of limitations for bringing a medical malpractice suit in Florida is usually two years. This means you only have two years to file suit against the doctor who wronged you.
Medical malpractice law in Florida is complicated. One of our medical malpractice attorneys can explain the requirements to prove malpractice and evaluate your case to help you understand if you have a good claim for recovery.
In Florida, before you can even file suit, you must investigate the claim and obtain a medical expert opinion on the extent and cause of your injuries. You must file the expert opinion with your notice of intent to initiate litigation and get a response from the prospective defendant.
For any type of medical malpractice involving negligence, you will be required to attend a mandatory mediation after you file suit.
Our medical malpractice attorneys are knowledgeable of the process, the experts you will need, and the kind of case to build to get you the settlement or jury award that you deserve after suffering at the hands of a surgeon you trusted.
