What is the deadline in Arizona?

Arizona has a 2-year statute of limitations for personal injury and product liability claims (ARS § 12-542). The discovery rule applies for latent cancers — the SoL begins when you discover or should have discovered the connection between talcum powder and your cancer. 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?

Arizona has a 2-year statute of limitations for product liability claims with a discovery rule for latent disease. Arizona's large retiree population and warm climate correlate with higher rates of long-term talcum powder use for personal hygiene. Phoenix and Tucson gynecologic oncology centers serve as primary diagnostic hubs.
