Slate Stern Law

About Slate Stern Law

If you are harmed by a healthcare provider’s negligence, it is critical to understand that you must file your lawsuit within a specific time window or else be barred from obtaining financial compensation for your losses. This time limit on a medical malpractice claim is known as the statute of limitations. According to the New Mexico medical malpractice statute of limitations , all medical malpractice claims must be filed within three years from the date of the act of malpractice. To be clear, the clock on your medical negligence claim will begin ticking on the date the healthcare provider made a mistake or omission that resulted in your injury. From that point, you will have three years to file a lawsuit. Once that three-year clock stops ticking, your claim will become time-barred.
