How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Maryland?
In Maryland, the statute of limitations for filing a personal injury claim is generally 3 from the date of the accident. This means you have three years to initiate legal action to seek compensation for your injuries. Failing to file within this timeframe may result in losing your right to pursue a claim.
However, certain exceptions may apply depending on the specifics of your case. For example, if the injured party is a minor or if the injury was not immediately apparent, the deadline may be extended. It’s essential to consult with an attorney, like those at the Law Office of David Ascencio, to ensure your claim is filed on time and correctly.

Step 1: Call the Police if Necessary
If you’ve been involved in an accident, it’s important to contact the police to file a report, especially if there are injuries or significant property damage. This documentation will be essential for your claim.
Step 2: Document Everything and Exchange Information
Gather as much evidence as possible at the scene of the accident. Take photos, get witness information, and exchange contact and insurance details with the other party involved.
Step 3: Contact Your Insurance Company
Notify your insurance company as soon as possible, even if you believe the other party is at fault. They will guide you through the process of reporting the incident.
Step 4: File Your Insurance Claim
Once you’ve gathered all the necessary information, file your claim with your insurance company. This is the formal process of seeking compensation for your injuries and damages.
A personal injury claim is a legal process you can pursue if you’ve been hurt in an accident caused by someone else’s negligence, whether wholly or partially. The goal is to recover compensation for your injuries and losses from the at-fault party’s insurance company. In Maryland, there are no upfront costs to file a personal injury claim, and you only pay legal fees if your claim is successful.
In Maryland, anyone who has suffered physical injuries due to someone else’s reckless, careless, or negligent actions has the right to file a personal injury claim. You can pursue compensation against the at-fault party either with legal representation or by representing yourself. However, having an experienced personal injury attorney can significantly increase your chances of a successful outcome.
The value of your personal injury claim in Maryland will depend on several factors, such as the severity of your injuries, whether you’ll need ongoing medical care, and the insurance coverage available. Compensation may include medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering. To get an accurate assessment, it’s important to consult with an experienced attorney.
Your personal injury damages are calculated based on the seriousness of your injuries, medical expenses (both current and future), lost income, and the emotional toll the accident has taken on your life. Maryland law allows for compensation that covers both economic and non-economic damages, including pain and suffering.
The time it takes to resolve a personal injury case in Maryland can vary. Simple cases, where liability is clear, may be resolved in a few months. However, more complex cases can take up to two years or more. Your financial situation and the cooperation of the at-fault party’s insurance company can also impact the timeline.
In Maryland, the timeline for receiving compensation can vary depending on the complexity of your case. If the at-fault party accepts responsibility, your claim could be resolved in as little as 6 to 12 months. However, if liability is disputed, it may take between 12 to 18 months or longer to reach a settlement or court verdict.
