The Statute of Limitations

First and foremost, your Tennessee accident lawyer will be able to tell you precisely how long you have to file the claim. The Statute of Limitations establishes the maximum amount of time that may lapse between the accident itself and the claims process. Once this window of time has passed, you will not be able to open a case. This is important information for your case because it gives you a sense of your case’s timeline – whether you need to file the claim straight away or can take the time to recover from your injuries and build your case more slowly.
