Re: Time limit to sue someone

In New York the statute of limitations for a personal injury lawsuit is generally three years, so you are well within that time frame. Please feel free to contact me for a free consultation should you wish to discuss this further.

Re: Time limit to sue someone

One potential pitfall could be that Homeowners Policies generally require the homeowner to notify the insurance company of any claims within a short period of time (30 days). After that, the insurance company may disclaim coverage and you would be left having to sue and recover solely against your former friend.

Please contact me via email to arrange for a complimentary telephone consultation on this matter so that we may discuss the intricacies of recovering outside of a homeowner's policy.

Re: Time limit to sue someone

The statute of limitations for personal injury in NY is 3-years but there are caveats to that rule such as a municipality involvement.

Please give me a call if you would like to discuss the matter in greater detail.

Re: Time limit to sue someone

There is a 3 year limit from the date on which the incident occurred. There are issues involving a legal concept called "notice" that you need to have addressed from what your posting states.

Feel free to contact me for a free telephone consult.
