Public Comments

1. Unfortunately the statute of limitations has probably run. The statute allows a certain length of time from when the patient was treated until a suit is filed. Here in California it is one year.
2. There really isn't enough information to answer your question. Was your boyfriend warned of possible risks of the medication? Was he advised of other treatment options? Did he seek out a second opinion? What was the outlook if it was untreated? If you think that he might have a legitimate case, you shouldn't have too much trouble finding a lawyer to take your case. But don't expect a quick resolution. Malpractice cases can take years to resolve.
3. No one can answer you until you reveal the state in which this occurred.
