Deadlines for Filing an Injury Lawsuit in Florida

Florida has a deadline for the amount of time you have to file a lawsuit in civil court against the person or business that might be legally at fault for your injury.Under Florida's statute of limitations for personal injury cases, you have four years from the date of the accident to file a lawsuit in Florida's civil courts. If you don't file your case in time, the court will likely refuse to hear it. For injury claims against a city, county or state government, the time limit is three years. If you're filing an insurance claim or lawsuit over an accident or injury, you'll need to be familiar with laws in your state that might affect your case.
