Many South Florida personal injury claims are governed by statutes of limitations.  The statute of limitations is the time limit you have for filing your claim; once that time limit has expired, you can no longer file your claim.  While the idea of a time period for filing a claim may seem straightforward, it can become complicated quite quickly.

For example, if you are injured as a result of medical malpractice, the statute of limitations states that you have two years from the time of injury in which you may file a claim. However, if you suffered an injury that is not discovered within that two year window, you must file your claim within a year from the date that the injury was discovered or when it should have been discovered, whichever is earlier.
