What to Know About Medical Malpractice Laws in New York
Preparing to bring a medical malpractice claim against Morris Park Medical Center or an associated doctor? You need to know your rights and duties under New York law. Here are key points:
- Standard of Liability: In New York, proving a medical malpractice claim hinges on demonstrating that negligent medical care was provided within an existing doctor-patient relationship, which caused measurable harm to the patient.
- 30-Month Statute of Limitations: New York has a 2.5 year medical malpractice statute of limitations. All lawsuits must be filed within a strict 30-month timeframe from the date of the malpractice or the date the injury was discovered—whichever is later.
- Certificate of Merit Required: A critical step in pursuing a malpractice lawsuit in New York is obtaining a certificate of merit. It must be issued by a practicing medical expert who affirms that there is a reasonable basis for your claim.
- No Cap On Damages: In contrast to some other U.S. jurisdictions, New York does not impose statutory limits on medical malpractice damages. You can seek financial compensation for the full value of medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
