AB 218 Has Changed California State Statute of Limitations.
New Laws Extend the California and New York Statute of Limitations
The Zalkin Law Firm is now preparing cases for childhood abuse survivors under a new laws in California and in New York which opened windows for survivors of child sexual assault to file civil claims.
In California, AB 218, was signed by the Governor on October 13, 2019 giving adult survivors of sexual assault a window of three years for the revival of a claim that might have expired due to the statute of limitations.
In New York, the new Child Victims Act has opened a window for civil claims which will close in January 2021 and The Zalkin Law Firm is actively preparing cases for survivors in that state.
Our firm is closely monitoring and supporting efforts in other states which will allow survivors more access to the civil justice system through statute of limitations reform.
