Did a Miami Doctor’s Mistake Upend Your Life?
A normal check up can spiral into paralysis, infection, or loss when safety protocols fail. These errors hurt over 250,000 Americans yearly, making medical mistakes the nation’s third leading cause of death. Florida alone paid $347 million in malpractice payouts last year, and the state’s oversight boards still struggle to discipline negligent physicians promptly. If your family is suddenly facing new surgeries, lost wages, or funeral costs, you deserve clear answers and fast action starting with Miami’s leader in malpractice advocacy.
Know the standard of care so you know if you can sue
How Florida Law Defines Medical Negligence
Under Florida Statutes § 766, malpractice happens when a provider breaches the accepted medical standard, directly causing injury. Common examples include misdiagnosis, surgical errors, and birth trauma. Before filing, state law demands a 90 day presuit investigation supported by an expert affidavit. This is a hurdle that Percy Martinez’s in house medical reviewers clear daily.
Answer four quick questions to gauge lawsuit strength
Do I Have a Case? Run This 60 Second Checklist
Ask: Did a licensed provider treat you? Was care below what another competent clinician would offer? Did that lapse cause measurable harm like medical bills, disability, or death? If you answered yes, you likely meet Florida’s four malpractice elements of duty, breach, causation, and damages. Our free audit pinpoints missing pieces and estimates claim value within 48 hours, so you’ll know whether to proceed without paying a cent.
Lock down charts and scans before they vanish forever
Preserve Proof Before Hospitals Close the Door
Electronic records can be edited and imaging data auto purged within weeks. Secure discharge summaries, lab results, and witness contacts immediately; Florida allows subpoenas only after the presuit notice is served. Percy’s rapid response team photographs injuries, copies PACS imaging, and issues spoliation letters to every facility within 24 hours of engagement, protecting evidence other firms often lose.
File on time and keep your legal leverage strong
Preserve Proof Before Hospitals Close the Door
Florida’s statute of limitations is generally two years from discovery of injury, extendable to four in rare concealment cases. Miss it and courts bar recovery even in catastrophic paralysis claims. A timely presuit notice also tolls the clock for only 90days. Waiting for “one more follow up” can silently erase your rights; call before the calendar does.
We count every future cost so no compensation is left behind
Preserve Proof Before Hospitals Close the Door
Average U.S. settlements sit near $329,565, but Florida’s 1,059 closed cases paid $347 million in 2024, or roughly $327,000 each. Our firm’s median payout is 38% higher because we layer life care plans, loss of household services, and future therapy costs the defense often overlooks. Only 17.7% of Florida claims succeed; Percy’s win rate more than doubles that benchmark through meticulous expert prep.
