One essential component of any potential injury case is the statute of limitations. New York state law allows three years from the date of an accident which resulted in an injury in which the injured person may file a claim.
While there may be exceptions to this statute in certain cases, a claimant who does not adhere to this timeframe runs the risk of having the potential defendant make a motion for dismissal. A proactive lawyer could help an individual suffering a catastrophic injury file a claim that satisfies the statute of limitations in Bohemia.
