Following an incident in a semi-truck crash, the time to file a claim will differ from state to state. In the case for Florida and the city of Deerfield Beach, the time for file a claim for injury or property damage is 4 years. If we do not file the claim in that time period, we may not be able to litigate our case. It is very important to move along after the big rig crash and get checked as soon as possible. Getting the claim filed before 4 years is a more than enough time to have all we need to move forward.
