How long do I have to file a bad-faith claim in Alabama?

Quick answer: Bad faith is a tort, and Alabama's general limitations period for personal-injury torts is two years (Code of Alabama Section 6-2-38). How that period applies to a particular bad-faith claim can depend on the facts, so confirm timing with an attorney before relying on it.
