This biography looks at the life of Abraham Lincoln, a farm boy who grew up to become the sixteenth president of the United States and the man responsible for leading the country through the Civil War. Buying Options. Quantity.
The general rule for adults who are considering making a claim for personal injury compensation is that you have three years from the date of the accident or incident in which to bring a claim. If your claim has not been settled, or court proceedings have not been issued, by the third anniversary (3 years) of the accident then you will be prevented in law from making a claim. There are some exceptions to this rule, but they are not easy to meet.
Even though I am totally convinced my wife was in no way at fault in the accident, I worry that the decision will go the other guy's way and that a 50/50 decision will be the result. So with this in mind, I have a couple of questions: 1) How long does the claim stay on record. I'm thinking it's either 3 years or 5 years, but I'm unsure. 2) Whatever the length of time is, when does it start from? The date of the repairs, or the date of the final ruling? (I'll be mightily annoyed if it's from the date of the settlement, because we've been paying extra on her insurance for the last two and a half years). Any help much appreciated. Sorry my post was long.
