Several state laws can impact the outcome of your medical malpractice case in Illinois. For example, the medical malpractice statute of limitations in Illinois outlined in 735 ILCS 5/13-202 shows that victims who suffer from medical malpractice have a limited time within which they are allowed to take legal action.
