Statute of Limitations
South Carolina has a 3-year statute of limitations for personal injury claims (SC Code § 15-3-530) with the discovery rule applicable. South Carolina courts apply a modified Daubert standard for expert testimony. The 3-year SOL benefits South Carolina Zantac claimants with diagnoses from 2021 onward. Delaware state court filing may offer more favorable coordination and Frye expert standards as an alternative primary venue.
3 years from date of cancer diagnosis discovery (modified Daubert; 3-year SOL favorable)
