In California, the statute of limitations for filing a dog bite lawsuit is typically two years from the date of the injury. This means that you have a limited amount of time to take legal action. After this period, you may lose the right to seek compensation, regardless of the severity of your injuries.
Given this strict deadline, it’s crucial to act promptly. Delays can hurt your case, as evidence may be lost, witnesses may forget details, and it becomes harder to prove your claim. To avoid missing this important window, it’s advisable to consult an attorney as soon as possible after the incident.
An attorney can help ensure that all necessary paperwork is filed on time, allowing you to focus on your recovery while they handle the legal aspects. Acting early not only protects your rights but also gives your lawyer more time to build a strong case.
