What is the statute of limitations in Virginia?

Every state has a limitation of time within which a personal injury claim must be made. In Virginia this limit is generally two years from the date of the accident/injury. However, there are some special exceptions to this rule so it is important for you to determine what time limitation applies to the facts of your case. If the claim is not settled or suit filed within the correct time limitation, the injured person's claim will be barred forever. To learn more about the particular statute of limitations for your possible case, call us at 866-388-1307.
