Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis – Gadolinium Statute of Limitations
NSF or Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis is a painful and potentially debilitating disease linked to the use of some MRI contrast agents that contain Gadolinium. Many people go undiagnosed or misdiagnosed because the skin changes can mimic progressive systemic sclerosis or scleroderma. The disease was first recognized in 1997. Since then, hundreds of cases have been reported.
There is a limited period of time in which to bring a Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis Lawsuit. This time period is referred to as a “statute of limitations”. If lawsuits are not filed before the statute of limitations runs out, you may lose the right to bring a claim altogether. It is important to get a legal consultation regarding the statute of limitations. In some cases, a statute of limitations might not begin to run until someone has had a diagnosis (you will need a legal consultation to make that determination).
There are several factors that can affect the statutory deadline for filing your lawsuit. Some of these factors include:
-The state where the injury occurred
-The type of injury
-The state where the lawsuit is filed
-The age of the person bringing the lawsuit
-Whether the claim is a wrongful death lawsuit
Below is a state guide for statute of limitations. It has been provided as a general reference only. Statutes of limitations can change at any time by the actions of the legislature or courts of the particular state. For a full review of any potential legal claims and relevant statutes of limitation related to Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis or Gadolinium MRI Contrast Dye, it is important to consult with an attorney to determine how the law applies to your specific legal claims.
