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?

Maine women who developed meningioma after Depo-Provera use have a 6-year statute of limitations for products liability — one of the longest in the country. This extended filing window gives Maine women significant time to consult with attorneys and file claims. Maine's rural communities relied on Depo-Provera through family planning programs, and all federal claims are consolidated in MDL 3140.
