Florida Personal Injury Statute of Limitations: 2026 Window, HB 837, and Common Pitfalls

Florida's general personal-injury statute of limitations is two years from the date of injury under section 95.11(4)(a), as amended by HB 837. Pre-March-24-2023 accidents keep the 4-year SOL. Florida is also a no-fault auto state with PIP, a serious-injury tort threshold under section 627.737(2), a 14-day PIP rule, and a 90-day medmal pre-suit notice. This post walks every deadline and the HB 837 trap that ends Florida cases early.
