Statute of Limitations

Kansas imposes a 2-year statute of limitations for personal injury claims (KSA § 60-513). As a no-fault state, Kansas requires $4,500 PIP coverage plus 25/50/25 minimum liability. Modified comparative negligence with a 50% bar applies — a plaintiff who is 50% or more at fault recovers nothing. To sue outside the no-fault system, the plaintiff must demonstrate permanent disfigurement, a fracture, or medical expenses exceeding the PIP threshold (verbal threshold).
