What Is the Statute of Limitations in Utah?

The statute of limitations is the deadline for taking certain legal action, such as filing a personal injury lawsuit. In Utah, most personal injury lawsuits have a statute of limitations of four years. In the case of wrongful death, the statute of limitations is two years. In cases against the government, you have one year to file your lawsuit. Missing this deadline could cause you to forfeit your right to receive justice and compensation through the court system.
