Personal Injury Lawsuit Statute of Limitations in Tennessee
If you were injured in an accident and want to file a personal injury lawsuit, it is important to know that there is a very strict time window under the law for filing your claim. This time window is called the statute of limitations. Under Tennessee law (T.C.A. § 28-3-104), the personal injury statute of limitations is only one (1) year. This means that plaintiffs only have one year from the date of the injury to file a claim for compensation.
Failing to file a lawsuit before the statute of limitations runs out usually means that you are barred from seeking compensation through a civil claim. As such, it is important to get in touch with a LaFollette personal injury attorney as soon as possible to get started on your case.
