DiBiaggio Law Reflects on Shortened Timeframe for Personal Injury Claims
WEST PALM BEACH, Florida – Following Florida’s significant change to its statute of limitations for negligence claims, Attorney Deirdre DiBiaggio is sounding the alarm for injury victims to take swift action. With the legal timeframe for filing claims shortened from four years to two, individuals impacted by negligence in 2022 or earlier may risk losing their right to seek compensation if they do not act quickly.
“The new two-year statute of limitations brings a heightened sense of urgency for victims of negligence,” says DiBiaggio. “Many people may still be unaware of how this law impacts their ability to file a claim. Our team has been working diligently to meet these critical deadlines for our clients and protect their right to recover the damages they need.”
This legislative change, implemented over a year ago, specifically affects individuals injured due to negligence on or after March 24, 2021. However, the clock is ticking for those whose incidents occurred in 2022 or earlier. Failing to act within the tighter two-year period could permanently bar victims from pursuing justice in their cases.
DiBiaggio Law has implemented a proactive approach to case management, streamlining processes to prioritize cases affected by the time-sensitive restrictions. By maintaining open communication and providing personalized legal strategies, the firm meets all vital deadlines on behalf of its clients.
“Many of our clients come to us overwhelmed by the process, but we strive to make it as straightforward and efficient as possible,” DiBiaggio continues. “Our goal is to fight for the best outcomes for our clients and make sure that no one loses their opportunity to pursue justice simply due to a missed deadline.”
Victims of negligence in Palm Beach, Broward, Miami-Dade, and Monroe counties should contact Deirdre DiBiaggio’s office as soon as possible to discuss their case. Whether the issue involves car accidents, workplace injuries, or other forms of negligence, scheduling a consultation without delay could make all the difference.
