Frequently Asked Medical Malpractice Questions
I'm not sure if I have a case. How do I find out?
The only way to find out is to have the case reviewed by a malpractice specialist. The average person (and the average attorney) simply does not have the training and experience to recognize a malpractice case when they see one. Each year doctors get away with thousands of cases of medical malpractice because the wrong people are reviewing the case, or because a lawyer who is not a malpractice specialist makes a mistake which results in the case being lost.
What will this cost me?
Nothing. We work on a contingency fee basis, which means that we only get paid if you do. We will review your case free of charge. If we proceed with your case, our fee will be taken from the money we recover for you. If you do not recover damages, we do not get paid.
How Much is My Case Worth?
The value of any personal injury claim is dependent on a variety of factors that are unique to the specifics of the case. We cannot give you an estimate as to what your case will be worth until we have examined all of the evidence and spoken with all witnesses involved. Our experienced lawyers will be happy to provide you with a free consultation in order to assess the value of your claim and advise you as to the best way to proceed.
Can you help me if my case is not in Texas?
Yes. We handle many cases outside of Texas.
How do I get you to look at my case?
You can contact us in two ways: you can fill out the contact form on the side of the page or you can call us toll free at 1-866-228-1716. One of our attorneys will get back with you shortly to schedule your free consultation.
How Much Time Do I Have to Sue?
In Medical malpractice cases, there is a special and complex series of rules which are so arcane and unfair to injured plaintiffs that many lawyers cannot understand them and many of our judges and appellate courts disagree on what they mean. As a general rule, you have no more than two years in which to file suit from the date that the malpractice occurred which you believe caused an injury. But that is only a very general rule.
IT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT THAT YOU CONTACT A QUALIFIED ATTORNEY IMMEDIATELY IF YOU BELIEVE YOU MAY HAVE A MEDICAL MALPRACTICE CASE. MEDICAL MALPRACTICE LAW IN TEXAS IS INCREDIBLY UNFAIR TO INJURED PEOPLE, AND IF YOU DO NOT IMMEDIATELY CALL A LAWYER YOUR CASE MAY BE LOST-EVEN IF ONLY A FEW MONTHS HAVE PASSED SINCE THE DATE OF THE DOCTOR'S NEGLIGENCE.
At Polewski & Associates, we have seen many cases lost because the victims failed to act promptly. You do not want to wait until the statute of limitations runs out to file your claim. The sooner we begin working on your case, the greater the likelihood of a successful outcome. By delaying filing your claim, you run the risk of witnesses disappearing, physical evidence being tampered with, and records getting misplaced or destroyed. The gathering of evidence is crucial to the success of your claim, and in order to prove your case, we will need to start obtaining the evidence while it is fresh.
If you suspect that you have been hurt due to medical malpractice, call us today. You can't call us too soon, and it is tragically easy to be too late.
