FAQ
A snowplow clipped my car — who can I hold responsible and what deadlines apply?
Responsibility depends on whether the snowplow was operated by a private company or a governmental agency:
- Private snowplow: You may pursue the driver and company like any other negligence claim.
- City/county/state-operated plow: Claims fall under the Governmental Tort Liability Act and have very strict notice deadlines, often requiring written notice within 120 days.
You should take photos immediately, get the plow truck number if possible, request the police report, and call us before speaking with any adjuster. These cases are complex — but we handle them regularly and ensure all legal notices are properly served.
