Frequently Asked Questions

What is the time limit to file a medical malpractice claim in St. Petersburg?
In Florida, you generally have two years from the date of the incident or from when you discovered the injury to file a claim. This time limit is set by Florida Statutes Section 95.11. There are some exceptions for minors or cases of fraud.
Do I need a pre-suit notice before suing a doctor in Florida?
Yes, Florida law requires a pre-suit investigation process. Your lawyer must send a notice of intent to sue at least 90 days before filing a lawsuit. This gives the healthcare provider a chance to review the claim and possibly settle.
What damages can I recover in a Florida medical malpractice case?
You can recover economic damages like medical bills and lost wages. You can also recover non-economic damages for pain and suffering, but Florida law caps non-economic damages at 500,000 dollars against practitioners and 750,000 dollars against non-practitioner defendants.
