Personal Injury Laws by State

Personal injury law is state law. The time limits for bringing a claim, how fault is shared, what insurance drivers must carry, whether damages are limited, and where claims are handled all differ from one state to the next — sometimes substantially. The pages listed below provide plain-language general reference information about personal injury law in the states we cover.
About these pages: This website is an attorney-connection and legal marketing platform. We are not a law firm and do not provide legal advice. The information on these pages is general in nature and may be incomplete, outdated, or inaccurate. Nothing here creates an attorney-client relationship, evaluates any claim, or advises what any person should do. For guidance about a specific situation, speak with a licensed attorney in the relevant state. See our Editorial Standards and Disclosures.

Each state page describes general legal principles only — including filing deadlines, fault rules, insurance requirements, damage limitations, and the state court system — without applying them to any person's circumstances. Questions involving a specific person, deadline, claim, or legal strategy require advice from a licensed attorney who can review the actual facts.
