Is There A Time Limit To File A Claim For Injuries In Florida If You Did Not Report Injuries At The Time Of The Car Accident?

Yes, depending on the type of claim being filed. If you find yourself involved in a car crash in Florida, you should immediately report it to the police, even if no injuries are apparent, as a police report can assist the insurance companies in determining who was at fault. If you’ve suffered injuries in the accident, you should also seek immediate medical attention.

It is important to note that in many cases, injuries are not immediately apparent, and the victim may not experience pain or discomfort resulting from the accident until long after the initial reports have been filed. Many people assume that if they did not report actual injuries when the accident took place, the right to file a claim has been lost.
