01 · Your filing deadline
What is the deadline in Indiana?
Indiana imposes a 2-year statute of limitations for personal injury claims (IC 34-11-2-4). The state follows an at-fault insurance system with modified comparative negligence under the 51% bar — a plaintiff who is 51% or more at fault recovers nothing. Minimum liability coverage is 25/50/25. A lawyer can confirm yours.
2 years from accident date
Deadlines vary; a lawyer can confirm yours. An older diagnosis or a past filing window does not, by itself, establish whether you have a claim.
