Automobile accidents are responsible for a high percentage of injuries
which occur throughout Northern California. Much of the damage which is
incurred in a car accident can be quite severe and can even be catastrophic
or life altering. When you are on the road, you should be able to safely
know that the drivers around you are taking the necessary precautions
to avoid hitting others. However, this is not always the case.
If you or someone you love have recently been injured in a car accident,
turn to the legal team at
Swartz Fogy Law Group. We
have 52 years of combined legal experience and in personal injury, making us highly qualified to represent your case.
What Is the California Statute of Limitations for Car Accidents?
Personal Injury Lawsuits: The California Code of Civil Procedure section 335.1 states that individuals
may file a personal injury lawsuit for their car accident up to 2 years
following the date of their accident. If you attempt to file your lawsuit
after the 2 years have lapsed, your case will most likely be thrown out.
Vehicle Damage Lawsuits: If you choose to file a lawsuit over property damage alone, rather than
personal injury, California Civil Procedure 338 allows you to file a lawsuit
for up to 3 years after the date of your accident.
