What is the birth injury statute of limitations in my state?

Each state has its own statute of limitations, or SOL, which essentially means the amount of time you have to bring a claim about your child’s birth injury. Wrongful death claims, or claims brought on behalf of a child as a result of negligent care are also governed by SOLs that vary from state to state. In some states, the law provides for only one year in which to file a claim. For this reason, it is essential to reach out to an experienced birth injury attorney as soon as possible if you believe your child was injured at birth.
