01 · Your filing deadline
What is the deadline in Illinois?
Illinois's personal injury SOL is 2 years (735 ILCS 5/13-202). FTCA administrative claims must be filed within 2 years. The Illinois Way Forward Act (2021) restricts new ICE detention agreements. 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 houses ICE detainees at the Pulaski County Detention Center and several county jails. Illinois passed the Illinois Way Forward Act in 2021, prohibiting local governments from entering new ICE detention contracts, though existing contracts were grandfathered.
