After a pedestrian accident, it is important to act quickly. Connecticut imposes a statute of limitations on filing personal injury lawsuits. This law sets a deadline for filing a lawsuit; if you file after this deadline passes, the court will dismiss your case.
You have two years from the date of your accident to file your claim. There are some exceptions to this rule, but they are not common in pedestrian injury cases. Speak to a lawyer to identify your appropriate deadline and protect your right to a settlement.
