01 · Your filing deadline
What is the deadline in Arkansas?
Arkansas has a 3-year statute of limitations for personal injury and product liability claims (Ark. Code § 16-56-105). Discovery rule applies for latent disease — the SoL begins when you knew or should have known of the talcum powder-cancer connection. A lawyer can confirm yours.

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?
Arkansas has a 3-year statute of limitations for product liability — more time than most states, but the discovery rule means the clock may already be running for women who connected their cancer to talcum powder after the 2018 Reuters investigation or 2020 product discontinuation.
