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?
Connecticut has documented PFAS contamination at Bradley International Airport, the Connecticut Air National Guard base, and multiple industrial sites in the Naugatuck Valley. The state has active PFAS monitoring and has been proactive in requiring public water system testing.
Connecticut personal injury claims are governed by Conn. Gen. Stat. § 52-577a for environmental tort claims, with a 3-year limitations period from the date of discovery — more favorable than the general 2-year period. Federal PFAS claims proceed in MDL 2873. Bradley International Airport in Windsor Locks and the Connecticut Air National Guard 103rd Airlift Wing are primary military PFAS contamination sources. Industrial PFAS users in the Naugatuck Valley include electroplating and metal finishing operations.
