    What is the statue of limitations on a personal injury / medical malpractice case in California?

    I was told that it is 4 years from the date of injury?
    So is that the date that it happened, or the date that the injury from what happened set in ?

    Also someone else said that, it is the above OR the date that you became aware of the event, or the injury ?

      Michigan Statute of Limitations in the case of a minor malpractice suit: do any of these things matter?

      I will turn 18 in September, and my parents always told me that upon turning 18, I should file a medical malpractice lawsuit because of some incredible things that my neurologist did to me when I was an infant.

      However, now that the time is approaching for me to file, I have learned that I cannot. The potential malpractice occurred when I was an infant, in 1991-1993. From what I understand, I would have had to file by the time I was 10.

      but, both of my parents are mentally disabled. And in my childhood, they both abused drugs

      I was “kidnapped” when I was 6 and 7. My mother had no way of contacting me and could not have filed suit, from what she tells me.

      In the period where I was 8-10 years old, I was in foster care, not even with my actual parents to file suit.

      Will any of these things likely re-open the opportunity for me to file suit?
      Oh, and here are two more things, (and yes, I’m grasping at straws but whatever):

      My mother subjected me to sexual abuse and later literally handed me over to a kidnapper. Twice. (this is in the period where I was 5-7 years old) When I was found and taken back to my mother, she still was in denial about the abuse and subjected me to it for another year, until another woman’s daughter made accusations.

      She obviously wasn’t in the state of mind to pursue what was in the best interest of me. My father? He was estranged. He wouldn’t have filed suit anyhow.
      Kaz: you would expect a 7-year old to contact a lawyer and file a lawsuit?? WHAT?

      And again, my parents always told me that I couldn’t pursue the case until I was 18. As it was, I didn’t even think I had a case because they lied to me about what happened (again, they’re mentally disabled).

      What is the Statue of Limitations for Medical Malpractice in NC?

      I lost my mom when I was 8 years old. Now that I am 30 and look back on things, I strongly believe there was a form of medical malpractice in her case. She was in and out of a hospital here locally, that back then, was known for being a bad place to go. She was only 28 years old when she passed. My family unfortunatly..are a bunch of uneducated people who probably where unaware or signs of malpractice. Now I have just graduated from nursing school, and now things I am just remembering, I strongly feel that there is a malpractice here. But I feel that it is really too late to do anything about it. It has been over 22 years, but at the same time, I have gone 22 years without my mom. I have expereinced a lifetime of needs where my mom should have been there, and I feel she was taken from me. Is there anything that I can do?

      Statue of limitations in texas, concerning medical malpractice.?

      I know that in texas the statue of limitations concerning medical malpractice is 2 years. this is what im unsure of.

      August 4th, 2007. My father passed away. I believe his passing was a direct was in direct line with the negligence of his medical practitioner.

      The act of negligence took place on July 30th, 2007.

      Do i have until August 4th, 2009 pursue a lawsuit or must it be pursued by July 30th, 2009?

      I know this is a little abstract to ask since the time frame is so close, but due to current circumstances time is everything.

      I will really appreciate help on this.

      Thanks,
      Mike.
