Madison County Statute of Limitations on Personal Injury Claims

It’s critical to speak with a Madison County personal injury attorney as soon as possible to pursue the compensation you deserve.

Under Alabama’s statute of limitations, you will usually have only two years from your injury to file a lawsuit in Madison County. If you file suit after the statute of limitations has passed, the court will likely dismiss your case for being untimely. At this point, you will lose the right to demand compensation from those responsible for the harm and loss that you have suffered.
