Does BAM Injury Law handle medical malpractice cases?

BAM Injury Law focuses exclusively on personal injury cases -- car accidents, truck accidents, slip and fall injuries, wrongful death, and uninsured motorist claims. We do not handle medical malpractice cases directly. However, if you believe a healthcare provider's negligence caused your injury, we can refer you to an experienced medical malpractice attorney in Utah or Idaho.

Medical malpractice cases in Utah are governed by a specialized set of rules including a pre-litigation panel review process under Utah Code Section 78B-3-416. Cases must be reviewed by a medical malpractice pre-litigation panel before a lawsuit can be filed. The statute of limitations for medical malpractice in Utah is two years from the date the injury was discovered or should have been discovered, with an absolute cap of four years from the date of the act under Utah Code Section 78B-3-404. These rules are different from standard personal injury deadlines and require an attorney with specific malpractice experience.

If your injury involved both a vehicle accident and medical treatment (for example, an emergency room error after a car crash), both a personal injury claim and a medical malpractice claim may be viable. BAM Injury Law handles the injury claim and coordinates with a malpractice referral for the medical negligence component.
