01 · Your filing deadline
What is the deadline in Alaska?
Alaska personal injury SOL: 2 years (AS 09.10.070). Minor tolling: for a child injured before age 8, the SOL is tolled only until the 8th birthday, then the 2-year SOL runs — child's claim expires at age 10 (AS 09.10.140(c)). Wrongful death: 2 years from date of death (AS 09.55.580). A lawyer can confirm yours.
Discovery rule applies in Alaska. Alaska follows pure comparative negligence.
Deadlines vary; a lawyer can confirm yours. An older diagnosis or a past filing window does not, by itself, establish whether you have a claim.
02 · Where cases are heard
Where would my case be heard?
Alaska's 2-year personal injury SOL is tolled for a child injured before age 8 only until the 8th birthday — surviving NEC children have until age 10 to file. Alaska has a small but active NICU community centered at Providence Alaska Medical Center and Alaska Native Medical Center. Families often travel to Seattle for specialty pediatric care, creating cross-state litigation considerations.
