Q:
I am thinking about filing a lawsuit regarding my Florida motorcycle accident. Is there a time limit after the motorcycle accident for filing a lawsuit in Florida?

A:
One year -- though that time limit, on rare occasion, may be extended if for some reason you did not discover your injuries resulting from your Florida motorcycle accident right away, and/or if the wrongful conduct or negligence that led to your accident wasn't immediately apparent. However, the courts frown on any accrued delay in what's called "discovery" in the case and extensions of the one-year statute of limitations are very infrequent.
