What is the deadline in Kentucky?

Kentucky imposes a 1-year statute of limitations for personal injury claims (KRS § 413.140). This is one of the shortest limitation periods in the nation. The discovery rule applies to latent pharmaceutical injuries — the clock begins when the plaintiff discovers or should have discovered the injury and its cause. 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.
