I am sorry to hear of the loss of your twins. Note that medical malpractice cases are extremely fact sensitive and very difficult to adequately analyze in on online post. Generally speaking the law requires that most lawsuits be filed within three years of the wrongdoing/negligence, though there are some exceptions to this general rule. You may wish to consult with an attorney in this area.
