How much time? Here’s the answer. In Wisconsin, you have three years to file a lawsuit against the responsible party. Now, there’s a lot of different caveats to this answer because what if it’s a municipal claim? If you have a claim against a governmental entity, well that changes the time limit. What if you were killed?
If, if someone, a loved one was killed in a car crash? That changes the time limit. If it’s simply a car accident where you have maybe a broken bone. Whiplash, some other kind of injury and you’re still with us and there’s an at-fault party. Then it is a three year statute of limitations. So you have three years to file a lawsuit against the responsible party.
