Statute of Limitations: Car Accident and Wrongful Death

Video Transcript

A car accident can turn your world upside down.

Aside from your physical injuries, you’ll also face other challenges, like medical bills, lost wages, and insurance companies who make you jump through hoops, even when the other driver was at fault.

So don’t try to handle it alone? South Florida Personal Injury Attorney Scott Smith will work with you to fight for your rights and get you the compensation you deserve.

But Scott reminds Florida accident victims: Don’t wait too long to make the call.

The victim of a motor vehicle crash has 4 years from the date of the crash to bring a claim for their personal injuries. In a wrongful death situation, the statute of limitations reduces to only 2 years.

As a result, it is very important when you are the victim of a motor vehicle crash to contact us immediately. Scott says it’s also important to gather evidence right away. So call Scott Smith.
