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?

Washington women who developed meningioma after Depo-Provera use have a 3-year products liability statute of limitations. Seattle and the Puget Sound region have a large population of women who received Depo-Provera at women's health clinics, Planned Parenthood centers, and OB-GYN offices. Washington's discovery rule may provide additional time for women who only recently learned of the meningioma risk.
