German term (edited):
ab Kenntnis von Schaden und Sch�diger
Selected
after becoming aware of the damage and the liable party
or maybe 'discovery' is less clumsy than 'becoming aware'. I think liable party is best for Schädiger though.

German term (edited):
ab Kenntnis von Schaden und Sch�diger
within three years as of knowledge of damage and person responsible for the damage
Not very catchy, I know, but I looked around in Google a bit and didn't find a better way to put it.
LEO gives "author of damage" for "Schädiger", but IMHO that sounds a bit fishy.

within three years of knowledge of damage and responsible party
You now have plenty of options. Ifind it interesting that knowledge of both is required. This means that if the damaged person knows about the damage, but doesn't know who caused the damage the period in which he may make a claim continues to run until he/she learns who caused the damage. That might be forty years.
