How Long Do I Have to File a Car Accident Claim in Hartford, CT?
In Connecticut, you generally have two years from the date of a car accident to file a personal injury claim. If you miss this deadline, you may lose the right to seek compensation for your injuries.
Certain factors can shorten that window. If a government vehicle or municipal employee was involved, you may need to file a notice of claim within 90 days. Acting early gives you more time to gather medical records and other supporting documents.
Some situations can extend the filing deadline. If the injured person is a minor, the two-year period may not begin until they turn 18. A lawyer can review your case and explain whether any exceptions apply.
Connecticut courts require claims to be filed in the correct civil court and properly served on the defendant. Filing fees apply, and strict procedural rules must be followed. Mistakes in this process can delay or result in dismissal of your case.
Insurance companies may dispute liability or question the severity of injuries. They may delay responses or request recorded statements early. Speaking with a lawyer before dealing with an insurer can help protect your claim.
A car accident lawyer can track your filing deadline and make sure all paperwork is submitted correctly. Legal guidance can help you avoid errors that may affect your case outcome.
