In addition to the statute of limitation, if you are pursuing a personal injury claim against the state government or a local government, the law obligates you to provide the government with written notice of your claim within six months of the date of your injury. Since filing an untimely claim may result in the loss of your right to compensation, contact a West Chester personal injury lawyer as soon as possible to begin preparing your case.
