How long do I have to bring a case?

You must file your case within the statute of limitations, a fixed period of time dictated by law. This can be as short as ninety days or as long as three years. In automobile accidents, certain steps sometimes must be taken within thirty days. If you miss the deadline for filing your case, your claims can be dismissed. Consequently, it is important to talk with an experienced personal injury lawyer as soon as you receive or discover an injury.
