Re: gross negligense
A lawsuit for personal injury must be filed within 2 years after the accident, and 3 years for property damage. However, if an insurance company pays its insured under an uninsured motorist claim, it has 3 years after its payment to file a suit. Please let me know if I may be of further assistance.
