Many people still don’t realize that Florida recently changed the law for personal injury cases. For most negligence cases arising after March 24, 2023, the time to file a lawsuit was reduced from 4 years to just 2 years.

That means injured individuals now have far less time to investigate their case, gather evidence, complete treatment, and protect their rights. Waiting too long can result in losing your ability to recover compensation entirely.

Surveillance footage disappears, witnesses become harder to locate, and important evidence can be lost with time. If you’ve been injured due to someone else’s negligence, don’t assume you have years to decide what to do and speak with an attorney early to protect your claim.
