Understanding the Statutes of Limitation for New York Premises Liability Claims

Premises liability claims can arise when someone is injured on another person's property due to negligence. If you are a resident of New York and have been injured on someone else's property, it is important to understand the statutes of limitation that apply to your case. In this blog post, we will discuss the statutes of limitation for premises liability claims in New York, how they may differ from other states, and how an attorney can help you navigate through the legal process.


In New York, the statutes of limitation for premises liability claims typically range from three to six years, depending on the circumstances of the case. For example, if you were injured as a result of a slip and fall accident on someone else's property, you generally have three years from the date of the incident to file a lawsuit. On the other hand, if your injury was caused by a defective condition on the property, you may have up to six years to bring a claim.


It is important to note that statutes of limitation can vary from state to state. While New York has relatively generous timeframes for bringing premises liability claims, other states may have shorter deadlines. This is why it is crucial to consult with an experienced attorney who is familiar with the laws in your jurisdiction.


An attorney can help you gather evidence, assess liability, negotiate with insurance companies, and ultimately fight for the compensation you deserve. They can also ensure that your claim is filed within the appropriate timeframe to avoid being barred by the statute of limitations. Additionally, an attorney can provide guidance throughout every step of the legal process and advocate on your behalf in court if necessary.
