BSPE Legal Marketing Podcast

From K L Sanchez Law Office, P.C. – "When Is It Too Late to Get a Lawyer for a Car Accident?" delves into the critical timelines and legal nuances surrounding car accident claims in New York. Understanding these time-sensitive elements is essential for anyone seeking rightful compensation after an accident.

In New York, the statute of limitations for personal injury lawsuits typically allows a three-year window from the date of the accident to file a claim. For wrongful death claims, this period is generally two years from the date of death. Property damage cases often have a three-year filing deadline. However, these timeframes can vary based on specific circumstances, making prompt legal consultation crucial.

Certain exceptions can alter these standard deadlines. For instance, cases involving minors or claims against government entities may have different time constraints and procedural requirements. Delaying legal action can lead to challenges such as loss of critical evidence, difficulties in proving the connection between injuries and the accident, and potential exploitation of delays by insurance companies. Engaging a lawyer promptly helps preserve evidence, ensures timely filing, and safeguards your rights throughout the legal process.
