Is there a time limit for bringing a bodily injury lawsuit?
Yes. Each state has its own time limit, which is called a “statute of limitations.” In Pennsylvania, and many other states, the time limit is two years. Some states, for example California, have a one-year time limit. Some states, for example Florida, have a longer time period. It is very important to promptly consult an attorney in the state where the lawsuit may be filed to determine the time limit which is applicable to your claim.
