Unfortunately, it is too late for you to file your lawsuit because Maryland has a three year statute of limitations in personal injury cases. This means that a personal injury lawsuit must be filed before the three year anniversary of the incident that caused your injury.
Since the lawsuit was not filed prior to the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, your claim is barred by the statute of limitations.
