Time is Running Out To File Your Claim
In Illinois, you generally have two years from the date of a motorcycle accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. This legal deadline—called the statute of limitations—applies to cases involving injuries caused by another driver’s negligence. If you miss this window, you may lose your right to pursue compensation entirely.
For property damage claims, the deadline extends to five years from the date of the accident.
There are some exceptions depending on the circumstances, such as accidents involving minors or government entities. That’s why it’s crucial to speak with an attorney as soon as possible to protect your rights and preserve vital evidence.
