How long does someone have to file a wrongful death case?

In New York State, the wrongful death statute of limitations is not three years, it’s 2 years from the date of death. So that’s really important to note. So there’s actually a lot involved here. Wrongful death cases are very complex and especially because the law is so outdated in New York. It’s really important after a death, especially due to the negligence of somebody else, that you call a firm like ours immediately so we can investigate and make sure you understand your rights and the limitations under New York law.
