Statute of Limitations

Alabama has a 2-year statute of limitations for personal injury claims including truck accidents (Code § 6-2-38). Wrongful death claims must also be filed within 2 years (Code § 6-5-410). Alabama's contributory negligence doctrine makes early legal consultation especially critical — insurance companies will aggressively pursue any argument of shared fault to avoid paying claims entirely.
