  Illinois Propecia Lawsuit
For a Illinois Propecia Lawsuit, Illinois law establishes a limited amount of time for when a claim can be filed. This period of time is called a "statute of limitations." Because Illinois law creates a deadline for filing a claim, a man who believes he may be suffering from Propecia side effects such as permanent erectile dysfunction, impotence, or loss of libido, should consult with an attorney as soon as possible.

Statute of Limitations for Propecia Lawsuits in Illinois

An Illinois Propecia lawsuit is a product liability claim. Illinois product liability lawsuits usually include causes of action for strict liability, negligence, and breach of warranty. Generally, a cause of action for personal injuries must be brought within two years of its accrual. The limitations period starts to run when the plaintiff knows, or reasonably should know, (1) that he has suffered an injury, and (2) that the injury was wrongfully caused.

PLEASE NOTE: exactly when a cause of action accrues under Illinois law, and therefore also the deadline for bringing a claim for having developed Propecia side effects, varies based on the specific facts of each man's case, including the medical records documenting his injuries.
