Why the Claim Deadline Matters More Than You Think
Every type of legal claim is governed by a claim deadline, also known as a limitation period. If this deadline expires, your claim may be rejected , regardless of how strong your case is.
For example:
- Housing disrepair claims often depend on when the landlord was first notified
- Injury claims usually have a strict time limit from the date of the incident
- Delays can weaken evidence and reduce compensation
Our solicitors act quickly to ensure your claim is started within the correct legal timeframe, giving your case the strongest possible foundation.
