My 17 year old son was in a coma 3-4 months because of an injury in a car wreck. Now he is 20. Does the time period for filing suit apply to a person that was in a coma and is just realizing what happened and wants to sue the driver’s insurance company?
The statute of limitations is 3 years from the date of the accident except for minors and those you are incompetent. If you are a minor or incompetent, you have 3 years from the date of your 18th birthday or 3 years from the date the incapacity is lifted.
