There Are Time Limits on How Long You Can Wait to Take Legal Action
New York Civil Practice Laws & Rules § 214 imposes a statute of limitations that creates a deadline for how long you can wait to file a lawsuit against a negligent driver after a car accident in the state.
We need to act before this deadline passes.. Some reasons why you should file your case sooner rather than later include the following:
- If you miss your case’s filing deadline, your case could get dismissed and you would lose your right to pursue compensation.
- Evidence may expire within a short timeframe and may not be available by the time you submit your case.
- Witnesses’ memories may fade or become unreliable the longer time passes from the accident.
Reach out to us as soon as possible after your accident, and we can go to work right away protecting your rights. The sooner you contact us, the greater our opportunity to build the strongest case possible on your behalf.
