I suffered personal injuries in a Memphis, Tennessee apartment fire. How long do I have to file a lawsuit?

The amount of time you have to file a lawsuit is referred to as the “statute of limitations.” In order for you to file a lawsuit, you must file it within the applicable statute of limitations time period. In general, Tennessee Code Annotated Section 28-3-104 governs what the applicable statute of limitation is for personal injuries and wrongful death. This statute requires that lawsuits for personal injuries or wrongful death be brought within one year from the time the personal injuries or wrongful death occurred. However, it is important to contact an attorney as soon as possible after an accident.
