01 · Your filing deadline

What is the deadline in Delaware?

Delaware Code Title 10 § 8119 imposes a 2-year statute of limitations for personal injury and product liability. The discovery rule applies for latent injuries such as those caused by PowerPort catheter fracture. A lawyer can confirm yours.

2 years from injury or discovery

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.
