What is the deadline in Utah?

Utah has a 4-year statute of limitations for personal injury claims from the date of discovery. A lawyer can confirm yours.

4 years from discovery of injury and PFAS connection

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.

Where would my case be heard?

Utah has Hill Air Force Base north of Salt Lake City as the primary military PFAS contamination site. Hill AFB, a major Air Force logistics and fighter wing installation, has documented PFAS in groundwater affecting Davis County communities between Ogden and Salt Lake City. Utah's 4-year statute is relatively favorable.

Utah personal injury claims are governed by Utah Code § 78B-2-307, providing a 4-year limitations period from discovery — more favorable than most states. Federal PFAS claims proceed in MDL 2873 (D.S.C.). Hill AFB in Davis County (between Ogden and Salt Lake City) is the primary military PFAS contamination site in Utah, with documented PFAS in groundwater monitoring affecting the Ogden-SLC corridor communities.
