<human>: How long do I have to wait to file a personal injury lawsuit?
<bot>: It depends on the state and the specific circumstances of your case. Generally, you must file a claim within the statute of limitations period, which is usually two years from the date of the accident or incident in question. However, there are some exceptions to this rule that may allow for an extension of time to file suit. You should consult with an attorney to determine if any such exception applies to your situation.
