The evidence that decides injury claims

- An incident report — made to the business or property manager, with a copy or reference number.
- Medical records from day one — gaps in treatment become the insurer's argument.
- Witness names and numbers — collected before everyone scatters.
- What you were wearing — footwear matters in fall cases; keep it unaltered.
- A simple log — symptoms, missed work, and expenses as they happen.

The firm may contact you to learn more and explain how Idaho claims generally work. There is no cost to request a review, and submitting the form does not create an attorney-client relationship.

Why quick action matters in Idaho
Idaho generally allows two years from the date of injury for most personal injury and wrongful death lawsuits (Idaho Code 5-219). But claims involving a government entity require a written notice of claim within 180 days under the Idaho Tort Claims Act — a jurisdictional deadline that is fatal to a claim if missed. Evidence also fades quickly. This is general information, not legal advice; a participating law firm can explain the deadlines that apply to you.
