01 · Your filing deadline
What is the deadline in Wyoming?
4-year statute of limitations for personal injury under Wyo. Stat. § 1-3-105. Wyoming uses modified comparative negligence with a 51% bar. The state's longer deadline provides more time for injured drivers, but prompt action is still advisable. A lawyer can confirm yours.

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.
02 · Where cases are heard
Where would my case be heard?
Wyoming follows an at-fault system with modified comparative negligence under the 51% bar rule. The 4-year statute of limitations under Wyo. Stat. § 1-3-105 is one of the longest in the nation, providing ample time to pursue a claim. Minimum insurance is 25/50/20. Wyoming's vast distances, high speed limits (up to 80 mph), extreme weather conditions, and wildlife-vehicle collisions (particularly pronghorn and elk) shape the state's accident landscape.
