Time Limits to File a Lawsuit Over an Accident

By Allen Flatt Ballidis & Leslie on July 11, 2023

Did you know there are time limits to file a lawsuit over any car, truck, or motorcycle accident – especially if a government vehicle is involved? Generally, in California, you have two years from the time of the accident to file a claim, but in some cases the deadline could be as soon as 180 days. Don’t miss these critical time limits and risk waiving all your rights to collect damages! Your best bet is to contact our legal experts for a free consultation as soon as possible at www.allenflatt.com/contact.html or call (949) 752-7474.
