STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS: How long do I have to file a lawsuit for my California Slip and Fall injury case?

A: Two years.  In California, there is a two year "Statute of Limitations" for bringing a lawsuit for bodily injuries from a slip or trip and fall case.  

Special Note:  You should consult a lawyer about your timeframes because different time frames apply if you are suing a pubic entity (government) or you have a worker's comp slip and fall accident.
