In Delaware, there is a limit on how much time you have to file a bike accident claim or any type of personal injury claim. This is known as the statute of limitations.
In incidents involving negligence, the statute of limitations is generally about two years from the time of the accident. However, it’s important to note that waiting can harm your case. If you wait even a few weeks or a few months, the evidence in your case may disappear. In addition, the insurance company may claim you weren’t seriously injured since you didn’t file right away.
Get legal advice right away and get the ball rolling on a claim to ensure you don’t miss out due to statutes of limitations and other deadlines. The sooner you act, the more your attorney may be able to assist you.
