How Long Do I Have to File a Wrongful Death Claim?

With the “statute of limitations” in New Jersey, you would have two years from the date of the deceased person’s death to file a wrongful death claim. If it is not filed within that time period, it most likely will be barred from court entirely. If you are getting close to the two-year deadline, it would be best to speak with our experienced attorneys at Gold, Albanese & Barletti to ensure you are in compliance with the time limit.
