01 · Your filing deadline
What is the deadline in Illinois?
Illinois: SOL extends to age 38 or 10 years from discovery (whichever is later) under 735 ILCS 5/13-202.2. 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?
Illinois allows childhood sexual abuse survivors to sue until age 38 or within 10 years of discovery. With active LDS wards across metropolitan Chicago, survivors should assess whether their claims remain viable.
