Generally, the statute of limitation is one year after the date of injury in a medical malpractice case, with a four year statute of repose (i.e., if the medical malpractice was hidden or otherwise not discoverable by the patient). Once you have reasonable notice of the facts underlying the medical malpractice, you have one year to bring a case.
