Understanding Florida’s Statute of Limitations for Spinal Cord Injury Lawsuits
Florida Statutes § 95.11 generally allows two years to file a personal injury lawsuit or wrongful death claim after an accident. If your lawsuit is not filed on time:
- Its filing could be prohibited
- It could be dismissed out of hand
- The insurer could refuse to negotiate
Florida Statutes § 95.051 describes exceptions that might toll, or pause, the statute of limitations. Our Panama City Beach spinal cord injury attorneys will help you accurately interpret the filing deadline, file your lawsuit on time, and avoid the costly consequences of non-compliance.
We Believe Accident Victims Deserve Access to Legal Service and Support
No one should forego legal service and support after an accident that causes a catastrophic injury. Our lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, meaning:
- We cover all the costs associated with preparing your claim
- We pay any research, investigation, or court filing fees
- You will not pay anything upfront or out of your own pocket
You will only compensate our law firm after we recover damages for you. If you do not receive compensation, you will not owe us any legal or attorney’s fees at all.
