In Florida, there is no statutory cap to the amount of damages you can pursue through litigation. That means that there is no limit to the economic and noneconomic losses you can recover. Get started by calling the Law Offices of Anidjar & Levine today.
Florida Time Limits for Personal Injury Litigation
Florida Statute §95.11 grants a timeframe for pursuing a civil action. How long you have to act will depend on the specifics of your case. For example, if you were injured by a defective product while on the job, you have four years from the date of your accident to seek financial recovery.
If a loved one passed away, you may have the ability to file a wrongful death claim on their behalf. The same Florida statute gives two years from the date of your loved one’s passing to seek compensation through the court system.
Your time to act may be limited. To learn more about what the state’s statute of limitations means to your situation, call the Law Offices of Anidjar & Levine today at 1-800-747-3733.
