Deadline for Filing a Lawsuit

If you were injured in a dog attack in New York, you generally have three years from the date of the incident to file a personal injury lawsuit. Waiting too long could affect your ability to preserve important evidence and protect your right to pursue compensation.

Early action can make a significant difference in a dog bite claim. Witness memories fade, evidence can disappear, and records relating to the dog's history or prior aggressive behavior may become more difficult to obtain. Speaking with an attorney as soon as possible allows your legal team to investigate the attack, preserve critical evidence, and determine the compensation that may be available under New York law.

At The Harrison Law Group, we will review your case, explain the deadlines that apply, and begin building a strong claim on your behalf. Your consultation is free, and you pay no attorney fees unless we recover compensation for you. Contact The Harrison Law Group for your free, no obligation consultation today.
