Common Questions

Most Florida negligence and personal injury claims must be filed within 2 years of the injury under Florida Statute §95.11(4)(a), as amended by HB 837 in 2023 (previously 4 years). Wrongful death claims are also generally 2 years. Deadlines are strict and can vary — don't wait to consult an attorney.
