Is there a time limit for making a claim or filing a lawsuit after being in a motorcycle collision?

A: Yes, there is a legal statute of limitations that applies to these kinds of cases. This time limit is different from state to state and when it begins to “run” can be different if the victim is a child, disabled or if you are overseas in the military. It’s complicated and you need legal advice to know for sure. If a claim is not settled before the time expires, or if a case is not filed in court prior before the time runs out, the injured party will lose the right to pursue a settlement for their injury. When there has been a death or serious injury an attorney should be?hired immediately. This will allow a firm like ours to get an experienced motorcycle collision investigator to work interviewing witnesses and preserving critical evidence.
