● You Are Here
SOL: two years from diagnosis (N.J.S.A. 2A:14-2(a)) Courts: Superior Court of New Jersey, Law Division (Middlesex County), Superior Court of New Jersey, Law Division (Bergen County) New Jersey allows two years for a personal-injury claim (N.J.S.A. 2A:14-2(a)), measured from when the cause of action accrued; for latent disease New Jersey applies a discovery rule, so the period runs from when the claimant knew or reasonably should have known of an injury attributable to another's fault. The wrongful-death period is separate and is measured differently: N.J.S.A. 2A:31-3 requires the action to be brought within two years after the date of death, and not thereafter. Deadlines turn on the facts; confirm yours with counsel.
