Law Topics >  Injuries > Time Limits

Statutes of limitation vary from state to state. In general, they limit the amount of time an injury victim has to file a lawsuit. Failure to timely and properly file suit within the applicable limitation period may forever bar your claim.

f you have been injured and believe that you may have a case against an individual, corporation, or other entity, it is very important that you do not delay in seeking legal representation. If substantial time has passed since the incident, you should contact a local attorney immediately. You may seek legal representation through your local bar association’s lawyer referral program.
