The statute of limitations in personal injury cases, such as a Viox lawsuit, can vary from place to place, but are often around 2 years from the date that the injury is suffered.
There are several things that can affect this. Different states may have different rules about when the statute began to run or may have a different length of time based on the type of injury involved. Even if you are afraid that the statute of limitations has run, you should consult with an experienced Vioxx attorney as quickly as possible to see if you do, indeed, have time to file an action or get some other type of relief through a Vioxx class action settlement.
