Weltman may also undertake legal representation in certain cases, and will affiliate with other legal counsel located throughout the country to provide legal representation.
The Statute of Limitations is especially important. Every state has laws called the “statute of limitations" which set a deadline to file a lawsuit. That means that a lawsuit filed too late may be thrown out, regardless of the defendant’s liability.
