- Medical treatment and rehabilitation, including hospitalization, surgeries, medication, long-term treatment, therapy, pain management, or medical equipment purchases

If you’ve lost a close relative to an accident someone else caused, you could have grounds to pursue a wrongful death claim. Your family may have the right to pursue financial recovery for wrongful death losses such as:
- Healthcare expenses incurred to treat your loved one
- Conscious pain and suffering endured by a loved one before their death

Statute of Limitations for Personal Injury Cases in NYC
New York’s statute of limitations on personal injury claims places various deadlines on filing a lawsuit, depending on the nature of your claim. In New York, most personal injury claims have a three-year limitations period, requiring you to file a personal injury lawsuit within three years of the date you sustain injuries due to another party’s fault.
However, other types of personal injury claims have different deadlines. For example, medical malpractice claims have a 30-month or two-and-a-half-year statute of limitations from the date you received negligent treatment or the last date of a course of negligent treatment. Wrongful death claims have a two-year statute of limitations from the date of a loved one’s death.
Courts may extend the deadline under certain circumstances. For example, courts may toll the limitations period for injured minor children since minors cannot file lawsuits by themselves. Courts can also toll the limitations period under the discovery rule, which states that the limitations period begins to run once an injured party discovers or reasonably should have discovered their injury. The discovery rule also applies when it takes time for an injured party to learn crucial facts underpinning their personal injury claim, such as the identities of liable parties.
Different filing procedures apply in personal injury claims against a state or local government in New York. Under New York law, you must notify the appropriate government agency of your personal injury claim within 90 days of the accident that injured you. You also have one year and 90 days to file a personal injury lawsuit against the government.
New York strictly enforces the statute of limitations on personal injury cases. If you file suit after the deadline expires, the court will likely dismiss your claim as untimely, which could cost you your right to compensation. You can best protect your rights and options by speaking with an experienced personal injury lawyer in New York City from The Tadchiev Law Firm, P.C., as soon as possible.
