If you or a loved one is injured:

Type of Claim: Statute of Limitation:
Negligence (car accidents, slip and fall, toxic torts, etc.) 5 years
Assault or Battery 2 years
Defamation 2 years
Strict Liability 5 years
Products Liability 5 years
Wrongful Death 3 years

  • Reimbursement for medical treatment and lost wages
  • Reimbursement for damage to or loss of use of property that occurred as a result of the injury
  • Loss of consortium (loss of services of your spouse: income, companionship, child care, etc.)
  • Money for emotional distress and/or pain and suffering
