How Long do I Have to File a Burn Injury Claim in Florida?
After you get a burn injury as a result of someone else’s negligence, you have four years from the day you get burned to file a claim. Our Collier County burn injury lawyers recommend that you file your burn injury claim as soon as possible. By doing so, you increase your chances of getting the highest compensation and you will also have more time to build your case.
If you wait too long to file your claim and the four years passes, you will no longer be able to request any compensation from the negligent party. This is why it’s so important to know how long you have to file.
There is also the chance that you may have more or less time to file than you think, depending on the details of your case. And the only way to know exactly how long you have to file is to get in touch with a burn injury attorney.
