What is the Statute of Limitations in Illinois for a Personal Injury Lawsuit?

The standard time limit for an Illinois personal injury lawsuit is two years. This means that after the injury, you have two years to get your complaint filed in court. Under the eyes of the law, the date of the accident is the start date of the claim.

If you miss the filing date, the defendant may file a “motion to dismiss” the case. The court will most likely dismiss your case unless under a rare exception. If you miss your filing deadline, you have lost your right to ask the court to award compensation for your injuries.

Are There Exceptions to the Statute of Limitation for a Personal Injury Lawsuit in Illinois?

Under Illinois state law, there are a variety of scenarios that can extend the two-year filing deadline. Some examples include:

  • If, before the personal injury lawsuit was filed, the injured person has come under a legal disability
  • If, at the time of the accident, the injured person is already under a legal disability
  • If, at the time of the accident, the injured person was under the age of 18
  • If the defendant left Illinois after the accident and before the lawsuit was filed

If you have questions about the statute of limitations and how it affects your case, our Rockford personal injury attorney can provide the guidance you need.
