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?
Iowa women injured by a broken Paragard IUD have a 2-year statute of limitations from the device breakage date. Iowa plaintiffs file their federal claims into MDL 2974 in the Northern District of Georgia. Iowa has a meaningful population of reproductive-age women who chose Paragard as a hormone-free contraceptive, and any Iowa woman whose device broke during removal should consult a Paragard attorney promptly given the 2-year filing deadline.
Iowa Paragard cases file into MDL 2974 in Atlanta. Iowa's 2-year personal injury statute under Iowa Code § 614.1(2) applies under the breakage-date accrual standard from the 2025 MDL ruling.
