Statute of Limitations
In Alabama, you generally have 2 years from the date of the injury to file a claim. Failing to file within this period can result in losing your right to seek compensation. It’s important to consult with a personal injury lawyer as soon as possible to ensure your case is timely filed.
Proving Fault
Proving fault in a personal injury case requires demonstrating that the other party was negligent and that their negligence directly caused your injury. This can involve gathering evidence, such as accident reports, witness statements, and expert testimony. In Alabama, the contributory negligence rule means that if you are found even slightly at fault, you may be barred from recovering any damages. Our experienced attorneys can help you build a strong case to prove the other party’s fault.
