Statute of limitations for personal injury

Or. Rev. Stat. § 12.110(1)

Calculate for your specific situation:

Personal Injury Statute Of Limitations in Oregon

Under Oregon’s civil procedure code, Or. Rev. Stat. § 12.110(1) governs the time limit for bringing a personal injury claim. That statute establishes a two-year period within which an action for injury to the person must be commenced. The limitation runs from the date the cause of action accrues, which the statute defines. The official text, available at the Oregon Legislative Assembly website, sets out the rule and any applicable exceptions or tolling provisions. The worked example below applies the two-year figure to a hypothetical accrual date to illustrate the calculation. Readers may use the DocketMath calculator to estimate their own deadline based on their specific circumstances.
