The Virginia statute of limitations for most personal injury claims is 2 years (Va. Code § 8.01-243(A)). Claims against a government body usually run on a much shorter separate notice deadline. Missing either one generally ends the claim regardless of its merits, so the filing date matters more than almost any other early decision.
