What is the Ohio dog bite statute of limitations for adults? How long to I have to file an Ohio dog bite injury claim?

In any Ohio personal injury case, the victim has a limited time frame in which to file a lawsuit or the claim will be lost forever. Ohio dog bite cases are no different, but the time frame is longer.

A dog bite victim has six years from the date of the bite to bring a lawsuit, as opposed to the two-year period people have if they've been injured in a traffic accident. This period is called the statute of limitations.

This extended period to bring a claim allows people a better opportunity to fully recover before they must bring a lawsuit. Dog bite injuries often take a long time to resolve, particularly if scar-revision surgery becomes necessary.
