How long do I have to sue over personal injury in Arizona?

Answered for: Arizona

Except as provided in section 12-551 there shall be commenced and prosecuted within two years after the cause of action accrues, and not afterward, the following actions: 1. For injuries done to the person of another including causes of action for medical malpractice as defined in section 12-561.

In Arizona you have 2 years to sue over personal injury. When that clock starts, and whether anything can pause it, are separate questions this entry does not answer.

This answer is true in Arizona and nowhere else on this site. Another jurisdiction is another answer, or an honest gap: see what has been read for Arizona.
