Yes, there is a time limit on claims in a Florida truck accident. If you have been a victim of a wreck, the limits set forth by the state are four years. In a wrongful death suit, the limit is two years from the time of passing.

There is also the issue of gathering evidence quickly after an accident with a commercial truck. Large trucks are equipped with black boxes as well as driver records, which all become vital evidence in a case and must be obtained soon after a wreck.

Because these cases can be complicated and may involve many parties, it is important to consider good representation by an attorney that is both experienced and knowledgeable about Florida personal injury law.
