Norwalk Personal Injury FAQs

Common questions our attorneys receive from personal injury clients include:

How Long Do I Have To File a Personal Injury Lawsuit in Norwalk?

Generally, the statute of limitations for personal injury lawsuits in Connecticut is two years from the accident date. If you miss the filing deadline, you will likely lose your right to pursue compensation.

An injury may seem minor at the scene of an accident and immediately afterward, but that doesn’t mean you should write off the possibility of filing a personal injury claim. Not all injuries are immediately apparent. In addition, seemingly minor injuries can hide more serious conditions, such as fractures or internal bleeding. Untreated minor injuries can also develop into long-term chronic disabilities.

Always seek medical help after an accident to determine the severity of your injury and receive treatment. A personal injury attorney can analyze your case, determine whether you have a claim, and advise you about your legal options.

Personal injury case timelines vary depending on the nature of the claim. More complex cases can take a few years to resolve, but some simpler cases may only take a few months from beginning to end. Your attorney can estimate the anticipated timeline of your case based on their analysis of the facts of your case.

In Connecticut, you generally can sue if you are not more to blame for an accident than the other party. Connecticut has a comparative negligence system, meaning you can recover compensation for your damages if you are 50 percent or less at fault for the accident. However, the compensation you can recover is reduced in proportion to your share of the blame for the accident. You cannot recover any damages if you are 51 percent or more at fault for the accident.
