How Long Do I Have To File Dog Bite Claim In West Palm Beach, FL?

Generally, two years. Following Florida’s 2023 tort reform under HB 837, the statute of limitations for dog bite personal injury claims is two years from the date of the attack under § 95.11, F.S. Waiting beyond this deadline will likely bar your right to seek compensation, regardless of the severity of your injuries. Contacting a West Palm Beach dog bite attorney promptly helps preserve medical records, animal control reports, and witness accounts before they become difficult to recover.
