Statute of Limitations

Maryland's personal injury SOL is 3 years (Md. Cts. & Jud. Proc. § 5-101). The Nursing Home Act follows the same period. Contributory negligence: any fault by the plaintiff bars recovery — making strong case development essential. Government facility claims require compliance with the Maryland Tort Claims Act (Md. State Gov't § 12-105).
