Time Limit To File A New Rochelle Personal Injury Case

Every state is responsible for setting time limits on how long victims have to file lawsuits against the parties that allegedly caused their injuries. The personal injury statute of limitations in New York is three years from the date an injury occurs. If an injury victim fails to file a claim within this three-year window, they will lose the ability to recover compensation for their losses.

How Much Does A Personal Injury Lawyer Cost?

The attorneys at Lever & Ecker, PLLC understand that victims of personal injury cases often struggle financially, which is why we take New Rochelle personal injury cases on a contingency fee basis. This means that clients will pay no upfront or out-of-pocket costs related to their case and will only owe us legal fees after we secure the compensation they deserve.
