In order to file a medical malpractice claim in a Maryland court, you need a certificate of merit signed by a qualified expert. As you may know, the statute of limitations in wrongful death cases is three years from the date of death. Please feel free to contact my office if you want to discuss your potential case in detail. 410 539 7816
