Certain situations may delay or extend the claim period:
Claims Involving Minors
If the injured person is under 18, the 3-year period usually starts only once they turn 18.
Mental Incapacity
If a person is mentally incapacitated and unable to manage their affairs, courts may allow an exception to the standard time limits.
These matters can be legally complex and are evaluated on a case-by-case basis.
