The amount of time that one has to file a claim varies state-by-state, according to a given state’s statute of limitations.
Generally speaking, the majority of states allow victims of auto accidents to file lawsuits up to 2-3 years after the accident occurred, though it is not recommended that a victim wait that long.
Some states limit claim-filing to 1 year after an accident, and still, others allow up to 6 years to pass before a victim is barred from filing an injury claim.
