The Statute of Limitations for Child Injuries
While children cannot file a lawsuit by themselves, an adult may do so on their behalf. Even so, there are laws that limit the time in which one may file a lawsuit to recover financial compensation.
In Florida, there is a four-year window when seeking to recover financial losses for cases resulting from negligence.
If your child’s accident resulted in his or her passing, you have two years from the time of death to file a wrongful death lawsuit.
Attempting to file a lawsuit on behalf of your child after the deadline in the Statute of Limitations will result in your case’s dismissal.
There more specific laws regarding the time limits, with special consideration for when the child turns 18 years of age.
To learn more the time constraints you may face for your case, call our firm as soon as possible.
