Frequently Asked Questions
What is the time limit to file a car accident lawsuit in Maryland?
In Maryland the statute of limitations for personal injury from a car accident is generally three years from the date of the crash. If you miss this deadline you may lose your right to sue. It is important to act promptly to preserve your claim.
How does contributory negligence affect my car accident case in Dunkirk?
Maryland is one of the few states that still follows pure contributory negligence. This means if you are found to be even 1 percent at fault for the accident you cannot recover any damages from the other driver. A lawyer can help gather evidence to show the other driver was entirely at fault.
What damages can I recover in a Maryland car accident claim?
You may recover economic damages like medical expenses and lost wages as well as non-economic damages for pain and suffering. Maryland caps non-economic damages in personal injury cases with the limit depending on the year of the accident. Punitive damages are rarely available and require proof of gross negligence.
