What is the deadline in Kentucky?

Kentucky applies a 1-year statute of limitations for personal injury claims under KRS § 413.140. This is one of the shortest limitation periods in the nation. The discovery rule applies to latent disease claims, but Kentucky Roundup claimants should consult an attorney once they learn of the connection between their exposure and NHL. 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.
