I Was In A Car Accident A Year Ago And My Injuries Haven’t Improved. Can I Still Sue?

in Buffalo Car Accidents

When someone is involved in a personal injury accident in Buffalo, the degree of his or her injury is not always immediately apparent.  Medical expenses associated with the injury may be paid through other sources, such as no-fault automobile insurance or health insurance, and there seems to be no reason to pursue an additional claim.

Unfortunately, a person’s condition following a personal injury does not always improve as they would hope.  While nobody wants to become involved in a personal injury lawsuit, in some cases people are left with no choice.

If it does turn out that an accident has resulted in a personal injury serious enough that you need to sue, you have three years from the date of the accident to bring a lawsuit for your personal injuries.  If you think you may need to bring a lawsuit but are not sure, you may wish to consult with an experienced personal injury attorney as soon as possible so that they will be aware of the time limitations in your case and can help you determine if a lawsuit is necessary.

If you have suffered a personal injury, we would be happy to answer your questions.  Please feel free to call us at 716-542-5444.
