Medical Malpractice Lawyers in Washington

At Holland Law Group, our experienced medical malpractice attorneys help clients across Washington State—including Seattle, Bellevue, Mercer Island, and Tacoma—pursue full compensation for injuries caused by medical negligence.

Understanding Medical Malpractice

Not every adverse medical outcome qualifies as malpractice. To prove a claim, our attorneys must show:

1. A healthcare professional breached the standard of care expected of their position.

2. That breach directly caused the patient’s injury.

3. That the injury resulted in damages, such as medical bills, lost income, or pain and suffering.

Common types of medical malpractice include:

• Surgical Errors – Wrong-site surgery, anesthesia mistakes, or procedural mistakes.

• Birth Injuries – Injuries to a newborn or mother due to delayed intervention or monitoring failures.

• Misdiagnosis or Delayed Diagnosis – Failure to identify conditions like cancer, infections, or heart disease.

• Medication Errors – Prescribing, dispensing, or administering the wrong medication or dosage.

• Hospital Negligence – Failure to monitor, respond to complications, or maintain safe facilities.

Filing Your Medical Malpractice Claim

Medical malpractice claims are subject to strict deadlines under Washington law. You must file within:

• Three years from the date of the negligent act, or

• One year from the date you discovered—or reasonably should have discovered—the injury, whichever is later.

• Eight-year cap from the date of the incident, regardless of discovery.

Holland Law Group ensures your claim meets all filing deadlines, giving you the best chance to recover compensation without losing legal rights.
