Frequently Asked Questions
Florida’s statute of limitations for most personal injury claims is two years from the date of the accident. For workers’ compensation claims, the deadline to report your injury to your employer is 30 days, and you generally have two years from the date of the accident or the date of your last authorized treatment to file a petition. Missing these deadlines can permanently bar your right to recover compensation, so it is important to consult with an attorney as early as possible.
It is common for insurance adjusters to reach out quickly after an accident — sometimes within hours. While they may seem helpful, their goal is to minimize what the insurance company pays out. You are not required to give a recorded statement, and doing so before consulting an attorney can hurt your claim. Adjusters may use your own words to dispute the severity of your injuries or assign you a greater share of fault. Before accepting any offer or providing any statement, speak with a Lake Mary personal injury attorney who can communicate with the insurance company on your behalf.
Florida follows a modified comparative negligence rule. If you are found to be more than 50% at fault for the accident, you cannot recover damages. If you are 50% or less at fault, your compensation is reduced by your percentage of fault. Insurance companies frequently try to shift blame onto injured parties to reduce their liability. An attorney can help protect you from unfair fault assignments during the claims process.
