Statute of Limitations on Personal Injury Claims

Reynolds and Reynolds Law Firm


Personal Injury Claims Frisco TXIf you choose to file a personal injury claim, the first thing you should know about is the Statute of Limitations. The Statute of Limitations is a legal rule regarding personal injury cases. It limits the amount of time you can sue, following an accident involving injury.

Throughout the states, this time limit is different for certain personal injury claims. These claims include auto accidents, malpractice and premise liability claims. In Texas, the length of the Statute of Limitations is the same for all of these claims. This length of time is two years. However, the date that two years begins can be different.  Generally, the two years begins on the date of injury.  However, for medical malpractice or health care liability, the two years runs from the date of negligence or malpractice.

If you want to file a claim, it is important to do so before the limitation is up. Other complications may arise if this does not happen.
