01 · Your filing deadline
What is the deadline in North Dakota?
North Dakota has a 6-year statute of limitations for personal injury claims from the date of discovery — one of the most favorable in the nation. 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?
North Dakota has Minot AFB and Grand Forks AFB as the primary military PFAS contamination sites, both Strategic Air Command bases with extensive AFFF use history. Minot and Grand Forks area communities have potential PFAS exposure from decades of AFFF firefighting training.
North Dakota personal injury claims are governed by N.D. Cent. Code § 28-01-16, providing a 6-year limitations period — very favorable for PFAS claimants. Federal PFAS claims proceed in MDL 2873 (D.S.C.). Minot AFB in Ward County (home of B-52 bombers and ICBMs) and Grand Forks AFB in Grand Forks County are the primary military PFAS sites. Both are major strategic installations with substantial AFFF history.
