Statute of Limitations
Illinois has a 2-year statute of limitations for personal injury claims (735 ILCS 5/13-202). The discovery rule is well-established in toxic exposure cases. For cancer cases, the clock typically starts at diagnosis. Illinois has no caps on compensatory damages for personal injury.
