Question:

How long do I have to file a lawsuit?
 
Answer:

The statutes of limitations vary by state and by type of claim. A statute of limitations determines the maximum amount of time that can pass before you properly commenced a Personal Injury lawsuit. It is important therefore that you contact a competent Personal Injury attorney who has experience with your type of claim as soon as possible after an injury or accident to make sure that all of the evidence is secured and to protect your legal rights. If your case is not properly commenced within the statute of limitations period, it will be too late and you will not be able to recover any compensation.
