Statute of Limitations on Personal Injury Claims in Illinois

Personal injury victims have a limited amount of time to file a lawsuit in civil court. In Illinois, the personal injury statute of limitations is two years from the date an injury occurs. If personal injury victims fail to file a lawsuit against the alleged negligent party within this two-year timeframe, they will likely lose the ability to recover any compensation for their losses at all. Their case will be dismissed in court.
