How long do I have to file a claim?
The length of time to file a claim depends on the statute of limitations for Pennsylvania. While this has a standard amount of time for the state, some cases may be eligible for an extension. Regardless of the statute of limitations, it is in an injured party’s best interests to have the lawsuit filed as early as possible. This not only prevents the deterioration of evidence but also preserves the memories of witnesses that can be called to the plaintiff’s case.
