Legal Question in Health Care Law in Florida

Re: Time Limits for Malpractice Claims

unlike all other negligence claims, there are extremely short time periods within which you much take action.

If you do not serve a formal notice with an affidavit of negligence from a similar health care provider attached within 2 years of the time that you first knew or should have known that there was medical negligence your claim will be forever barred.

Additionally, all claims must be brought within 4 years of the date of the treatment no matter when the negligence was discovered.

You can check out more info on our firms website under medical malpractice and of course contact our office if you need more help.

take care,
