Common FAQ

We are here to help! If you want more information about Medical Malpractice, please read our FAQ. We offer a free consultation so that we can discuss your options and will do everything in our power to get justice for you!.

Why are medical errors typically handled as civil cases?

Drop Down Arrow for FAQ

Medical errors are generally handled as civil cases because they typically involve mistakes or negligence rather than intentional harm. The goal of civil litigation is to compensate the victim for their damages, whereas criminal prosecution seeks to punish the wrongdoer and protect society.

What can I do if I am a victim of a medical error?

Drop Down Arrow for FAQ

If you believe you are a victim of a medical error, it's important to consult with a skilled medical malpractice attorney who can evaluate your case and guide you on the best course of action.

Remember, this is a complex area of law and there is much debate about whether or not medical errors should be treated as criminal offenses. In most cases, they are handled as civil matters, but the specifics of the case can significantly influence the course of action.

How long does a medical malpractice case take to resolve?

Drop Down Arrow for FAQ

The length of a medical malpractice case can vary widely, depending on factors such as the complexity of the case, the amount of evidence, and the willingness of the parties to reach a settlement. Some cases may be resolved within a few months, while others may take several years to reach a conclusion. An experienced medical malpractice attorney can provide a more accurate timeline based on the specific details of your case.

Are there any caps on damages in medical malpractice cases in Illinois?

Drop Down Arrow for FAQ

In Illinois, there are no caps on compensatory damages in medical malpractice cases. This means that there is no limit to the amount of compensation you can recover for your medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages. However, there may be caps on punitive damages, which are awarded to punish the defendant and deter future misconduct.

Very happy I chose Tomczak Law Group for my legal needs. Before hiring them, I had spoke with several attorneys on the phone. All of which quoted me $20,000 just to get started (more if my case went to trial), & their lack of confidence leaving me with an uneasy feeling in my stomach
