When to Hire a Schaumburg Medical Malpractice Lawyer

Under the Illinois statute of limitations (735 ILCS 5/13-212), medical malpractice lawsuits must generally be filed within two years of when the patient knew or reasonably should have known of the injury, subject to strict repose limits. Because gathering medical records and securing required physician affidavits under Section 2-622 takes considerable time, contacting counsel promptly is vital.
