Since you mention surgery, I assume you meant to ask this under the heading of medical malpractice, not legal malpractice, which is for misconduct by a lawyer. If I am correct and you mean medical malpractice, then the answer is you are way too late. You must sue within one year of when you knew or should have known you were a victim of medical malpractice, or within three years of when the malpractice occurred, whichever is earlier.
