Florida Statutes § 95.11 typically gives you two years to file a wrongful death or personal injury lawsuit in Rio. You could lose your right to file a lawsuit if the deadline expires in your case. We strongly urge you to consult a lawyer as soon as possible after suffering a wrongful death.
Your wrongful death attorney will ensure your lawsuit is filed within the statute of limitations for your case so that you retain all your options for fair compensation.
