Summary

The Court affirmed dismissal of the plaintiffs' legal-malpractice claims as untimely. It held that Kentucky's statutes of limitations applied because the alleged injury occurred in Kentucky, that the one-year limitation for claims arising from professional services controlled over the general five-year period for fraud and similar claims, and that the plaintiffs knew or should have known of their claims more than one year before filing suit.
