01 · Your filing deadline
What is the deadline in New Jersey?
2-year statute of limitations for personal injury (N.J.S.A. 2A:14-2). Discovery rule applies. Minority tolling under N.J.S.A. 2A:14-21 tolls for minors until age 18. 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.
