Warning

IMPORTANT MISSISSIPPI LEGAL INFORMATION — MEDICAL MALPRACTICE

Statute of Limitations: 2 years from the date of the malpractice or from when the patient discovered or reasonably should have discovered the negligence (Miss. Code § 15-1-36). Hard statute of repose of 7 years from the date of the act — with limited exceptions.

Pre-Suit Notice Required (Critical): You must give each healthcare provider defendant at least 60 days written notice of intent to sue before filing your lawsuit (Miss. Code § 15-1-36). If this notice is served within 60 days of the limitations deadline, the deadline is extended by 60 days.

Expert Consultation Required: Mississippi requires plaintiff's attorney to consult with a qualified medical expert before filing, confirming a reasonable basis for the claim (Miss. Code § 11-1-58).

Young Children: If the injured child was 6 years old or younger, the family generally has until the child's 8th birthday to bring a malpractice claim — subject to the discovery rule and 7-year repose.

Damage Cap: Noneconomic damages (pain and suffering) in medical malpractice cases are capped at $500,000 (Miss. Code § 11-1-60). Economic damages — medical bills, lost wages, future care costs — are uncapped.

Comparative Negligence: Pure comparative negligence applies.

This is a brief summary of commonly applied laws in the jurisdiction. There are often different laws that apply to different circumstances. Once you hire TopDog, your attorney will advise you on the applicable laws.

Your Case May Be Worth More Than They're Telling You.

Insurance companies for hospitals may make early low offers and often use delay and denial tactics. Economic damages are uncapped and can be very substantial in serious cases. TopDog fights for every dollar available.
