Feeling Pain After a Car Accident or a Slip and Fall...

If you are in a car accident or suffer a slip and fall, often it takes days or weeks to feel the effects. Many people think that they have missed their opportunity to recover for any medical costs because they did not act right away. This is not true.

In Rhode Island, most personal injury cases have a three year statute of limitations. That means that you can bring a case up to three years after the date of the injury. If you have an injury that you suffered in a car accident or slip and fall and you thought you were out of luck, you may still have time to recoup your lost medical costs.

If you have suffered an injury due to someone else's actions or negligence, contact a lawyer and find out what rights you have.
