What is the statute of limitations for bringing a lawsuit for child abuse or neglect in Michigan?

In Michigan, the statute of limitations for bringing a civil lawsuit for child abuse or neglect can vary depending on several factors, including the age of the child and the type of claim being pursued. For claims of sexual abuse, a victim has until the age of 28 to file a civil lawsuit against the alleged abuser, or within three years of discovering the injury or harm resulting from the abuse, whichever is later. For claims of physical abuse or neglect, a victim has until the age of 19 to file a lawsuit against the alleged abuser. However, if the abuse or neglect caused an injury that was not immediately apparent, the victim may have up to three years from the date the injury was discovered to file a lawsuit. It is important to note that the statute of limitations can be complex and may vary depending on the specific circumstances of the case. Therefore, it is highly recommended to seek legal advice from an experienced attorney who can provide guidance and support.
