About Schurmer Reese Davies

Non-economic damages, including pain and suffering, are subject to statutory limits under California’s Medical Injury Compensation Reform Act (MICRA) , as updated by AB 35. The cap is $470,000 for non-fatal injury cases and $650,000 for wrongful death cases, with both figures increasing annually until reaching $750,000 and $1 million, respectively, after which annual inflation adjustments apply. When a case involves multiple categories of defendants, such as an individual provider, a hospital, and an unaffiliated entity, California law may allow a separate non-economic cap to apply to each defendant category, which can substantially affect the total recovery available to the family.
