There are a number of steps that must be timely and properly fulfilled even before a malpractice claim is filed. For example, a patient must file a <u>Statement of Claim<\/u> before the Health Claims Alternative Dispute Resolution Office, and must include a verified <u>certificate of merit and report <\/u>from an expert. After filing those documents, most litigants then proceed to file their claim in Maryland courts.<\/p>\n<h4><em>Deadline to File a Lawsuit<\/em><\/h4>\n<p>Maryland also has a deadline to file a lawsuit, known as a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.millerandzois.com\/medical-malpractice\/maryland-medical-malpractice-laws\/maryland-malpractice-statute-limitations\/\">statute of limitations<\/a>. The deadline is the shorter of (a) three years from reasonable discovery of the injury; or (b) five years from the date the injury was committed. In most cases, where negligence and injury is obvious, an injured patient will have three years from the date of that negligence. However, in some cases, such as cancer misdiagnosis, determining the deadline to file suit can be more complicated and may require expert testimony. For that reason, it is best to immediately investigate whether you have a claim.<\/p>\n<div class=\"read_more_link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.millerandzois.com\/medical-malpractice\/maryland-malpractice-law-resources\/\"  title=\"Continue Reading Malpractice Claim Resources\" class=\"more-link\">Continue Reading \u203a<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Miller &amp; Zois represents patients and their loved ones who have been injured by the negligence of their health care providers.
