Statute of Limitations

Massachusetts's personal injury SOL is 3 years (M.G.L. c. 260, § 2A). The Long Term Care Residents' Rights cause of action follows the same period. Wrongful death carries a 3-year SOL. Massachusetts's medical malpractice review process (M.G.L. c. 231, § 60B) may add procedural requirements for certain nursing home claims — consult local counsel.
