Serving Kendall and the Dadeland Area
Kendall is a community of more than 80,000 residents in south-central Miami-Dade County; a neighborhood with a majority-Hispanic population, several of the largest private hospitals in South Florida within its borders, and a concentration of medical facilities that makes it a primary destination for care from well beyond its own boundaries. When that care falls short of the accepted standard, the consequences fall hardest on the patients and families who relied on it. The Law Offices of Jorge L. Flores, P.A., represents Kendall residents in cases arising from care delivered at the hospitals, surgery centers, specialty practices, and community clinics that serve the area.

Kendall medical malpractice cases we handle
The most common malpractice claims arising out of Kendall-area care fall into a handful of recurring patterns. Each category below links to the detailed practice-area page for the full legal framework; the summaries here describe the local patterns we see most often.
The sooner an injured patient contacts an attorney, the more a Florida medical malpractice firm can do to preserve the case. A number of statutory deadlines apply, and the procedural rules for a Florida medical malpractice case differ from those of any ordinary negligence claim.
01
Request and preserve your medical records
Obtain copies of every record connected to the care at issue. Do not sign any releases from the provider or the provider’s carrier before speaking with an attorney.
02
Document the injury and its effects
Keep a written record of current symptoms, ongoing care needs, missed work, and any conversations with the provider or facility about what happened.
03
Understand the deadlines
Florida imposes a two-year statute of limitations on most medical malpractice claims, along with a separate four-year repose deadline and a pre-suit notice process that must be completed before any lawsuit is filed. See our pre-suit requirements guide for the full framework.
04

A free consultation with the Law Offices of Jorge L. Flores, P.A., costs nothing and starts the case-evaluation process. Early attorney involvement protects the records, identifies every responsible defendant, and preserves expert review options.
