When Does the Clock on the Statute of Limitations Begin?

The statute of limitations for personal injury cases typically begins on the date the injury occurs, or the date you discover the injury. In some cases, such as car accidents, the date of injury is the date of the accident. In other cases, such as medical malpractice, the date of discovery might be later than the date of the actual injury, depending on when you realized you were harmed.
