How soon must I bring an injury or death case based on a Florida truck accident?

Jack J. Fine: The answer to this question is, it depends. If it’s a wrongful death case, it’s a two-year statute of limitations. If it’s a commercial vehicle trucking case, it’s typically a two-year statute of limitations. If the truck is owned by a governmental entity, there are other statute of limitations. There is a three-year notice period. The limitations or actions depends on the exact nature of the ownership and operation of the truck, and the injuries sustained in the accident.
