West Hartford Personal Injury FAQs
How Long Do I Have To File a Personal Injury Lawsuit in Connecticut?
Under Connecticut law, personal injury victims have two years from the date of the injury or when it is discovered to file a lawsuit. In cases of wrongful death, victims’ families have two years from the date of death—but no more than five years from the incident that allegedly caused the death—to file suit.
Can I File a Lawsuit If I Was Partially At Fault For My Accident?
Connecticut has a comparative negligence system for allocating fault. You can still recover damages if you are 50 percent or less at fault for the accident. However, if you are partially to blame, your damages will be reduced proportionately to your share of fault. You cannot recover any damages if you are more than 50 percent at fault.
What Type of Compensation Can I Receive In a Personal Injury Lawsuit?
In a lawsuit, damages are meant to cover all the losses you incurred because of your injuries. We can typically pursue two types of damages in a personal injury claim: economic and non-economic. Economic damages cover financial losses like medical bills, lost income, reduced earning capacity, and funeral and burial expenses. Non-economic damages compensate for more subjective impacts such as pain and suffering, emotional distress, and loss of consortium. The amount and type of compensation you may be eligible to recover will vary depending on the severity of your injuries and who was liable for them. A KJSR attorney can help you calculate and pursue your maximum potential compensation.
