What is the deadline in New Hampshire?

New Hampshire extended the SOL for childhood sexual abuse at YDC — special legislation allows claims related to YDC abuse. Standard SOL: age 30 (12 years after majority). Section 1983: 3-year SOL. A lawyer can confirm yours.

Special YDC window — consult attorney; standard SOL age 30

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.
