According to N.Y. Civ. Prac. R. section 214 the statute of limitations on personal injury case in New York is three years. This means you have three years from the date of your injury to file a claim or you may lose your right to pursue compensation. If your claim is against a city in New York, you have only ninety days to file a claim. The state of New York does recognize some exceptions to the statute of limitations depending on the circumstances of your case, including if your injury was caused by medical malpractice, in which case the statute of limitations is different.
