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

Answered for: Virginia

every action for personal injuries, whatever the theory of recovery, and every action for damages resulting from fraud, shall be brought within two years after the cause of action accrues.

In Virginia 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.
