Understanding Michigan's Statute of Limitations for Personal Injury Claims

The Basics of a Statute of Limitations

There is a law setting a deadline to sue someone after you're hurt called the statute of limitations. This law says that you have a certain amount of time to file a lawsuit. This is fair because evidence can get lost over time, and it's not fair for someone to worry about being sued forever. These deadlines help ensure cases get settled while the evidence is still available and fresh. If you're hurt, it's important to know the deadline to sue before time runs out.

Michigan's Specific Time Limits

In Michigan, the statute of limitations is three years from when you get hurt. Missing this deadline usually means you can't sue anymore. That's why talking to a Michigan personal injury attorney as soon as possible is important.

These attorneys understand Michigan's laws. They can help you take the right steps to file your claim on time and protect your rights. This can make a big difference in the outcome of your case.

First Steps After an Injury
