Legal Question
Required state of practice for attorney in Medical Malpractice case
In seeking a Medical Malpractice attorney, does the attorney need to have a practice in the state where the incident occurred?
Specifically, I live in New Mexico. My mother lived (now deceased) in Iowa and the physician that treated her also lives in Iowa. We are seeking a Medical Malpractice attorney for obvious negligence by the doctor that eventually ended up in my mother's painful death. Does the attorney we find need to have a practice in the state of Iowa or can the suit be brought by an attorney from a different state (for our convenience)?
