01 · Your filing deadline
What is the deadline in Louisiana?
Louisiana: 2 years for injuries after July 1, 2024 and 1 year for earlier injuries, generally from discovery (La. Civ. Code art. 3493.1) 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?
For Louisiana women diagnosed with meningioma after Depo-Provera injections, the prescriptive period (statute of limitations) is 2 years for injuries after July 1, 2024 and 1 year for earlier injuries (La. Civ. Code art. 3493.1), generally counted from when the injury was discovered or reasonably should have been. Whether that time has passed depends on your facts, so don't rule yourself out. A lawyer can tell you. Louisiana's significant Black population was disproportionately prescribed Depo-Provera.
