Can you sue for broken heart?

The “broken heart law”, as it’s known, means if your spouse cheats during your marriage, you can sue the person they cheated with for damages – sometimes for millions. Ouch. But if you come between two spouses, you’re the one at risk of being up for millions.

Is there a statute of limitations on pain and suffering?

Time Limits on Damages Whether your pain and suffering is the result of a car accident, a slip and fall incident, any other negligent act of another, or the result of an intentional act, California requires you to file your lawsuit within two years of the incident.

What happens if you miss the statute of limitations?

Missing the limitation period means your client may be without recourse. For this reason, failing to file a claim on time often leads to a claim against the lawyer who missed the limitation period. Lawyers who take on cases in other jurisdictions must know the relevant limitation periods.
