After a slip and fall accident in Georgia, your injury lawsuit must be filed within two years from the date of the accident. That time period is called the statute of limitations. If a slip and fall accident results in death, the family of the deceased accident victim must file the wrongful death lawsuit within two years of the date of the victim’s death. This date may not be the same date as when the accident occurred.
Some exceptions exist to this two-year rule. For instance, if the slip and fall accident happened on government-owned property, such as a sidewalk or road, the time period may be different. In some cases, the statute of limitations clock may pause – or toll – to give you more time to file an action. Laws regarding tolling are complicated. A review by a slip-and-fall lawyer may be required. Contact an attorney for a consultation to understand what your time limit may be.
