We Will Act Quickly to Comply With Florida’s Statute of Limitations
Florida’s personal injury statute of limitations changed in 2024. It reduced your allotted filing time for a personal injury lawsuit from four years to two years, per Florida Statutes § 95.11. It also generally gives you two years to file your wrongful death lawsuit.
In addition, Florida Statutes § 95.051 describes circumstances that could create exceptions to the statute of limitations, making compliance even more difficult. If you do not meet the filing deadline:
- The court could bar you from filing your lawsuit.
- A judge could dismiss your lawsuit immediately.
- The insurance adjuster may stop negotiating.
Our legal team will manage your case, including meeting all applicable notification and filing deadlines.
