How Long Do I Have to File a Spinal Cord Injury Claim in Florida?
In Florida, the amount of time you have to pursue a spinal cord injury case was recently changed. For most personal injury claims, including those involving spinal cord injuries that occurred on or after March 24, 2023, the statute of limitations is now two years from the date of the injury instead of the previous four-year deadline. If you sustained your spinal cord injury due to an accident that took place before March 24, 2023, you may still have four years from the date of the incident to file a claim.
Help us put you in the best possible position by reaching out to our team at The South Florida Injury Law Firm as soon as possible. You will be unable to take legal action or recover damages if you wait too long to start the legal process. Getting in touch quickly also gives our lawyers more of an opportunity to investigate your case, secure and preserve evidence, and build a strong claim.

Types of Compensation Available in Spinal Cord Injury Cases
Even relatively minor spinal cord injuries tend to result in life-altering damages that impact every facet of a person's existence. Depending on the location and severity of the damage to the spinal cord, victims may experience partial or complete paralysis (paraplegia or quadriplegia), leading to a significant loss of mobility, sensation, and control over bodily functions. Beyond the immediate physical trauma, these injuries often bring a cascade of chronic pain, muscle spasticity, bladder and bowel dysfunction, respiratory complications, and a heightened risk of secondary health issues like pressure sores and infections. The emotional and psychological toll frequently results in depression, anxiety, and a deep sense of loss as victims confront a dramatically altered future, requiring extensive medical care, rehabilitation, and often lifelong assistance.
To address these impacts, spinal cord injury victims can recover both economic and non-economic damages in a personal injury claim. Economic damages are the quantifiable financial losses that can be precisely calculated and documented.
Economic damages in a spinal cord injury case can include:
- Past and future medical expenses, including emergency treatment, surgeries, hospital stays, physical and occupational therapies, medications, specialized rehabilitation, adaptive equipment, home accessibility modifications, and in-home care
- Lost wages, including lost income from missed work and loss of future earning capacity
Non-economic damages are meant to address the subjective, intangible losses that do not have a direct monetary value. These damages diminish the injured person's quality of life.
