What is an Affidavit of Merit?
In order to have a claim for medical malpractice, you must establish that the doctor, hospital or medical provider deviated from the acceptable standard of medical care and that as a result of that deviation you sustained an injury in NJ which you would not have otherwise had. In order to pursue a medical malpractice case, the injured party must obtain an Affidavit of Merit, which as a certification signed, under the penalty of perjury, by a medical provider certifying that the initial medical provider committed an act of malpractice.
Because of the high standard and procedural hurdles and that one must go through in order to prevail on a medical malpractice claim and the time constraints associated with a medical malpractice claim, it is important that you immediately contact an experienced medical malpractice attorney if you believe that you have been the victim of medical malpractice.
