What is the Statute of Limitations on Florida Premises Liability?
Premises Liability
A premises liability claim is a civil action to recover damages for injuries suffered on another person’s property due to the property owner’s negligence. When these injuries occur, there is a time limit on how long you have to file a claim. Each state sets its own limit, and this time limit is known as the statute of limitations.Premises Liability Statute of Limitations in Florida
The Florida Senate has determined a statute of limitation for all Florida negligence-based claims, including premises liability. This time limit generally begins running the day of the accident, even if injuries were not realized immediately. There are a few exceptions, including:- The property owner is a governmental entity- The statute of limitations is usually shorter when the property is owned by a governmental entity than by a private citizen or company, and the amount of damages recoverable is limited.
- Incapacitating injuries- If you suffer injuries requiring intensive treatment and you can show reason, your lawyer may be able to pause the statute of limitations, allowing additional time to file a claim.
- Wrongful death resulting from premises liability accident injuries- If you have lost a loved one from injuries suffered due to a property owner’s negligence, the legal beneficiaries of the deceased have to file their claim within the statute of limitations for wrongful death claims.
