Q: Can I Re-Open My Claim After a Settlement?

A: In short, once a claim is settled, it is closed. Most cases cannot be revisited following settlement, meaning that a claimant needs to be especially careful before agreeing to a settlement. Although the statute of limitations gives a person a limited amount of time to file a claim after an injury, there may be unexpected injuries that arise in the future. This is why a claimant should confer with his or her attorney before accepting any settlement.
