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?
Missouri allows childhood sexual abuse claims until age 31 with discovery rule tolling. Missouri has a meaningful LDS population, and the help line system's use of clergy-penitent privilege is directly relevant to claims here.
