Limitation issues are complex legal matters and it is essential to take advice from a specialist Utah medical malpractice attorney. A medical malpractice action against any health care provider must be brought within two years of the date when the injury was or should have been discovered, with a maximum limit of four years after the negligent act. An action based on a foreign object retained in the body may be brought within one year of the date when the object was or should have been discovered. The statute applies to all persons, including minors and those under a legal disability, but both the two-year and four-year limitations have been held to violate the Utah Constitution as they apply to minors.
The medical malpractice statute of limitations applies to wrongful death cases arising from medical malpractice.
If you are the innocent victim of a clinical mistake then you may be able to recover compensation.
