Pedestrian or Car Accident Statute of Limitations in Iowa

If you were injured in a motor vehicle accident, regardless of whether you were in the vehicle or struck as a pedestrian, Iowa law sets a time limit for when a lawsuit can be brought.  This is called the Statute of Limitations.  

Generally, under Iowa law an individual must bring a lawsuit within two years of the accident, or the claim is forever barred.  Therefore, if you have been injured in an accident, you should contact a personal injury attorney as soon as possible.     

For more information or if you have questions about your individual situation, feel free to contact the Crimmins & Kehm Law Firm at 515-573-2191.
