How Potholes cause Accidents - Fetterman & Associates

If you get injured during a pothole accident, you have the right to sue the state or the contractor responsible for maintaining the road. You must file a claim to the relevant department in writing before the statute of limitation expires.

It is necessary to prove that the contractor or the state knew that the pothole was there. Competent personal injury attorneys can help determine if you have a case, but it is up to you to find the right one to handle the case on your behalf.
