Statute of Limitations
Kentucky's personal injury SOL is 1 year (KRS § 413.140(1)(a)) — one of the shortest deadlines in the country. The Long-Term Care Residents' Rights cause of action also follows a 1-year period. Wrongful death claims carry a 1-year SOL (KRS § 413.180). This short deadline makes immediate attorney consultation essential in Kentucky elder abuse cases.
1 year from date of injury — act immediately
