Texas Medical Malpractice Lawyer

My friend had an operation a while ago and the hospital has no record of this. His confidence has been indicted for her if she has the scar. The operation was done wrong. She has no money for a lawyer, if she has not pursued a claim for the moment. If it was about 5 years, can it still happen?

The limit is 2 years from the act, or if the exact date of the act is not known, 2 years after the end of the hospitalization during which the Act events.

Most states have a 7 years Statue of Limitations on civil cases. You can call your local office of the State Attorney to find for sure and get the details. Has it any type of documents for the surgery - the date, the doctor (surgeon) who perfomed the surgery, a copy of the charges transmitted to her insurance company, information on how the operation had been done wrong? Having a scar does not prove who made the transaction, or where it was made. And if she had done wrong, why did she wait 5 years before trying to file a claim?
