Question:

How Long Does a Medical Malpractice Case Take?

Answer:

We received a call from a potential new client who believes that she was the victim of medical malpractice at one of the local area hospitals in Naperville. She was wondering how long it would take for a potential medical malpractice case to resolve. We told her that these are some of the most complex cases because of the medicine that’s involved as well as the fact that they are expert witness heavy and intensive. As such, cases that are medical malpractice types of cases typically take at least two to four years to go through the system.

They are often heavily litigated. Many of them go to trial. That gives us a little bit longer timeframe than the typical auto case or premises liability matter. If you have a question regarding this or any other matter, please feel free to give us a call.
