EMS Rush to Two-Vehicle Crash on Granite St in Manchester, NH 

Manchester, NH (July 15, 2026) – Two vehicles collided Sunday night, July 12, at the intersection of Granite Street and Canal Street, prompting a heavy response from emergency units.

The crash was reported shortly after 8:20 p.m. Manchester Police and emergency units arrived to find two vehicles involved, with no entrapment reported. Those on board were evaluated at the scene by emergency units.

Traffic in the area was affected while crews worked, and drivers were urged to seek alternate routes and use caution near stopped emergency vehicles. No further details about the wreck have been released.

The cause of the collision remains under review. 

We hope those injured recover quickly and swiftly. 

How Long Do Drivers Have to File a Claim After a Crash in Manchester, NH?

New Hampshire generally gives victims three years from the date of a crash to file a personal injury lawsuit, under the state’s statute of limitations for personal injury claims. If claimants miss this window, it generally means losing the right to pursue compensation through the courts entirely.

That three-year clock matters even when injuries seem minor at first. Whiplash, soft tissue damage, or joint pain can take days or weeks to fully surface, and waiting too long to seek treatment can complicate both recovery and any later claim. 

It is also important to note that insurance companies tend to look closely at gaps between a crash and a medical visit, so to get evaluated as soon as possible helps protect both health and any deadline-driven paperwork down the road.

In these cases, a Manchester car accident attorney can help track the filing deadline while also handling the practical side of a claim, like communicating with insurance adjusters or ordering records connected to the crash. 

Legal guidance can be useful early on, since gathering documentation, witness accounts, and medical records takes time, and starting that process well before the three-year mark tends to strengthen a person’s position.

Because deadlines don’t pause for insurance negotiations, it helps to have clarity early rather than later. At Stephen Law, we can go over how New Hampshire’s filing window may apply to your case and explain what options may be open for you.
