How Long Do I Have to File a Personal Injury Lawsuit?

Whether you were involved in a car crash, injured in a slip and fall, or struck while riding a bicycle, suffering pain due to another’s negligence is something you should never have to face alone. Under Florida Statute, a personal injury lawsuit must be filed within four years of the injury or accident. With this being said, the sooner this can be accomplished, the better. This helps ensure key evidence and details are not lost to time.

Many personal injury cases are settled before they ever reach Florida courts. However, if a settlement with the insurance company cannot be reached, it is time to file a lawsuit.
