Re: personal injury and malpractice

There are not enough facts to answer your question.

The statute of limitations has expired in the 1993 incident and would probably be governed by workers compensation in any event.

The 2006 injection may also be too far removed. The statute of limitations in medical malpractice is 2 years but it is very very complicated in many instances to calculate.

You shoudl speak to a lawyer to get some good advice about your rights.
