Statute of Limitations
Alaska personal injury law is based mostly on tort law. According to Alaska Stat. ยง 09.10.070 an individual usually may not bring a lawsuit against another person for personal injuries or other torts after two years. The timeline begins when the injured person discovered, or should have discovered that they may have a claim against a wrongdoer.
