Bringing a Timely Claim Is Essential
Each state sets up time requirements within which you must bring a lawsuit if you hope for a recovery. States differ with regard to these time requirements. In the State of Arizona, generally you must bring your claim and have it filed with the court within two years of an injury.
However, there are even shorter time frames in certain circumstances involving government facilities or doctors working for government facilities. In some instances, the time requirement may be as short as 180 days from the day the malpractice occurred. For damages to children, the time requirement is two years after reaching age 18.
It is very important to talk to an attorney about the specific time limitations of your particular claim. You must not wait too long to file an insurance claim or lawsuit or you may lose your right to recover compensation.
