You Must Follow Florida’s Statutory Deadlines
Florida Statutes § 95.11(3)(a) is Florida’s civil statute of limitations. Under this law, you generally have four years to file your lawsuit against a negligent party. Your filing period depends on multiple factors, but it’ll likely start from the date of your collision.
Florida Statutes § 95.11(4)(d) is Florida’s statute of limitations for wrongful death lawsuits. You typically have two years to file your wrongful death lawsuit, beginning from the date of your loved one’s passing.
While certain exceptions under Florida Statutes § 95.051 could alter your filing period, our team can assess your situation and explain any upcoming deadlines. Then, we will file all documents on time to protect your right to damages.

It’s natural to be concerned about hiring a personal injury lawyer when you’re dealing with medical costs, lost time from work, and car repairs. Yet, hiring a tractor-trailer accident lawyer from the Law Offices of Anidjar & Levine is completely risk-free.

We Will Protect You from Aggressive Insurance Companies
Insurance companies are fully aware of the devastation that tractor-trailer collisions can cause, including how vulnerable claimants might be afterward. Many insurance companies, unfortunately, exist to earn a profit, not to help you.
The liable insurer may do everything possible to pressure you into accepting a low settlement. If you accept such an offer, your case ends, and some damages could go unaccounted for. We don’t think that’s fair. We will present the insurer with evidence, cite the liable policy, and fight for the coverage you need.
Our Team Will Do Everything Possible to Advance Your Case
While you focus on the aftermath of your collision, you can trust our team to:
- Collect and organize your medical costs related to the injury, as well as any documentation that establishes your damages
- Regularly update you on your case’s progression
- Help with practical matters, such as scheduling your appointments and getting your car fixed
- Determine all potentially responsible parties and insurers
- Investigate and gather evidence in your case, such as police records, data from the tractor-trailer’s onboard surveillance system, and expert testimony
- Negotiate a reasonable settlement with the insurance carriers on your behalf
- File a civil lawsuit, if we cannot reach a settlement agreement
We don’t see you as another case number. We know that your case comes with specific obligations. We will deliver services that meet your situation’s needs.
We Will Determine Liability for Your Tractor-Trailer Accident in Tallahassee
Tractor-trailer collisions are more complicated than car-on-car collisions. In those accidents, generally, only one party is at fault and therefore liable. Yet, truck accidents are different. While the trucker might have caused your accident, liability could rest with multiple parties, such as:
- The trucking company
- A government agency
- A truck manufacturer
- A truck maintenance service
- The company that loaded the truck
We understand that identifying the at-fault and liable parties can quickly get confusing. Yet, this is where we come in. We will gather evidence, interview witnesses, and consult with experts to learn who should pay for your losses. Then, we will take legal action accordingly.
What Should I Do After My Tractor-Trailer Accident in Leon County?
After getting hurt in a collision, you should seek medical attention and complete your prescribed treatment plan. You should also:
- Take photos of your vehicle’s damage and external injuries
- Document your losses
- Limit what you share publicly about the accident

- Talk to your lawyer before accepting a settlement offer
During your free case review, we can discuss what other measures could support your right to compensation.
