How long do I have to sue over written contract in Virginia?
Answered for: Virginia
2. In actions on any contract that is not otherwise specified and that is in writing and signed by the party to be charged thereby, or by his agent, within five years
The statute states 5 years for written contract. When that clock starts, and whether it can be paused, are separate questions this entry does not answer.
This answer is true in Virginia and nowhere else on this site. Another jurisdiction is another answer, or an honest gap: see what has been read for Virginia.
