The right deadline depends on the claim
Florida law sets different periods for different actions. The claim type, event date, defendants, and circumstances may affect the analysis. Other notice or procedural requirements may apply before a lawsuit is filed.
An insurance claim is not the same as a lawsuit
Negotiating with an insurer does not necessarily preserve a court filing deadline. Keep a record of the event date and get advice about time limits before waiting for an insurance decision.
What to have ready for a legal conversation
Incident reports and photographs; Medical records, bills, and appointment details; Names and contact details of witnesses; Insurance information and correspondence. These records can help explain your situation. Start with what you have, and ask the firm which additional information may be useful.
