Time Span to File a Lawsuit After Being in an Accident

Contact Us

Many times people ask you ‘How long do you have before you need to file a lawsuit?’ It’s really important to know that generally, that is 2 years. However, there are some exceptions for example, if you’re involved in an accident with a municipal, county or state agency, you need to let them know within 90 days in New Jersey by finally what we call a Tort Claims Notice. So if you have been injured, it is important to speak to an attorney right away so that you can determine whether you need to make any other proper notices before the 2 years.

If you require strong legal representation for matters of employment law, personal injury, real estate, or criminal defense, contact an experienced attorney at the Vigilante Law Firm, P.C. today to schedule an initial consultation.
