As a general rule, most personal injury cases in Illinois must be filed within two years. This two year deadline is known as a "statute of limitations." In most cases, the statute of limitations begins to run on the date of the accident or injury. There are exceptions to the two-year statute of limitations, including claims against certain governmental defendants, claims for minors, and other exceptions that are fact-specific.
The best way to determine the true deadline for filing a personal injury case is taking advantage of a free consultation with an experienced personal injury lawyer.
