Frequently Asked Questions about Medical Malpractice in Montclair, NJ

Is there a time limit in which to file a medical malpractice claim in Montclair?

Yes. The time limit or statute of limitations for a medical malpractice claim in New Jersey is two years. The statute of limitations begins on the date that the malpractice occurred or was discovered. For example, if the person could not have reasonably known about the malpractice, the statute of limitations will begin on the date when the person discovered the injury.

There are some exceptions to the statute of limitations. For example, if the victim of the malpractice was under the age of 18 at the time, the statute of limitations will not begin until the victim turns 18. Therefore, the two-year limit will begin on the 18th birthday of the victim. However, in the case of a birth injury, the statute of limitations is the 13th birthday of the child. A medical malpractice claim for a birth injury must be filed before the child turns 13.
