Car Accident Injury
For those who have been injuried in car, truck or other accident resulting in personal injury, a common question is “how long do I have to file a personal injury claim?”. When a person is injured, it’s not always immediately clear what the long term damages will be, how much rehabilitiation will be required or what loss of body use or work might result from the accident or what the insurance company will cover. It’s only after some time and trying to get proper compensation from your insurance provider that most claims are filed.
Colorado law states that you have three years to bring in a claim. By the three year anniversary of your accident, your claim must be resolved or a lawsuit must be filed to protect your interests. There may be other deadlines, such as filing appropriate notices if your claim involves a governmental entity, including claims against RTD. Slip and fall actions as well as wrongful death claims generally have a two year statute of limitations.
