Is there a statute of limitations on personal injury claims?

Yes, although the details vary depending on the type of claim. In most personal injury cases, including defective product claims and medical malpractice, the statute of limitations is two years. That means you have two years following the accident or the discovery of your injury to file a lawsuit. The statute of limitations for a property damage claim is four years.

If you have suffered an injury caused by someone else’s error, you need to act before time runs out. To begin building your legal case today, contact Atlanta personal injury lawyers Webb, Taylor, Wade, Taylor & Thompson, LLC at 770-631-1811.
