Time Limits for Brining Personal Injury Claims
The law provides a limited time period to bring a personal injury claim. In Washington, you must file a lawsuit within three years of your injury or accident. If you fail to do so, your claim will be barred by the statute of limitations. While you may have three years to bring a lawsuit, it is not a good idea to wait in many cases. It may be important to interview important witnesses to the accident while their minds are fresh and to take photographs and preserve other important evidence.
