In Maine, failure to diagnose lawsuits generally have a three-year statute of limitations, which begins running the moment the medical malpractice occurs. This means that once you suffer injury due to failure to diagnose, you have three years from that day to bring a claim against your provider.
While many failure to diagnose cases are obvious, some may be more difficult to pinpoint.  We recommend contacting a medical malpractice attorney as soon as you suspect your medical provider’s negligence caused you harm.
