There is a time limit on how long you must file an injury case after a personal injury accident. These laws are known as “statutes of limitations” and are different in every state. In Indiana, that deadline is 2 years from the date of the accident in most personal injury cases. That said, the deadline to file a personal injury claim can be shorter in some cases, such as claim against state, county, or municipal agencies. It is important to consult with an experienced personal injury attorney as soon as possible after you are injured to learn about your options for bringing a claim and protecting your rights.
