How Long Do I Have to File a Florida Slip and Fall Case?

For a slip-and-fall case in the state of Florida, you have up to four years to bring a claim against a negligent party such as a property owner or a business owner. However, keep in mind that there is one caveat and that is against governmental entities such as a local, county, state, or federal entity, you have a notice of claim within three years of the injury. Because these notice requirements can be complex, we do recommend that you contact an attorney to understand your legal rights.
