It is wise to contact an experience personal injury law firm
as soon as you think you may have a
personal injury or
wrongful death case. Delay can make it more difficult in
obtaining verification of the facts of the case, interviewing
witnesses and preserving evidence. There are time limitations
(statute of limitations in legal terminology) for acting to
protect your rights and the rights of your loved ones. If you
do not act within certain arbitrary time limits, you may lose
your right to make a claim, even if the injury gets worse as
time goes by. The time you have to file and resolve a claim
varies depending on the basis of the claim. Different types of
claims have different time limitations so it is important to
seek competent legal counsel before it is too late.
Different states have different statutes of limitations for
the same type of claim. Federal claims have different
limitations periods. Claims against certain municipal entities
have specific notice requirements. The complexity of these
rules make it imperative that legal counsel be obtained before
your claim is barred by one of these time limits.
