Frequently Asked Questions

  • What qualifies as medical malpractice in Arizona?

    Malpractice occurs when a healthcare provider’s treatment falls below accepted standards of care, leading to patient harm. This can include errors in diagnosis, surgery, medication, or post-operative care.

  • Can I sue a hospital or just the doctor?

    Both may be liable. In many cases, hospitals and clinics are responsible for the actions of their staff. Our attorneys investigate all parties who may be accountable.

  • How do I prove malpractice occurred?

    Evidence often includes medical records, expert analysis, and witness testimony. We work with leading medical experts to demonstrate how care fell below standards and directly caused harm.

  • What compensation is available in malpractice cases?

    Victims may recover damages for medical costs, lost wages, pain and suffering, long-term disability, and in some cases punitive damages. Families in wrongful death claims may also seek compensation for funeral expenses and loss of companionship.

  • How long do I have to file a claim?

    In Arizona, medical malpractice claims generally must be filed within two years, but certain discovery rules may extend the timeline if the injury was not immediately apparent. Acting quickly ensures evidence is preserved.
