Someone rear ends you or hits you as your driving down the street. At the moment you don’t notice any pain or obvious injuries but as the weeks go on you notice discomfort in your neck, back, knees or other parts of your body. A common misconception among those injured in auto accidents in Miami is if they do not make the claim for injuries immediately after reporting the accident they are barred from recovery for injuries developed or intensifying in the future. Or you notice that the auto shop you took your car to for repairs did not adequately or completely make the fixes to your vehicle. These situations are common in the Miami- Dade, Coral Gables and all other surrounding areas in South Florida.

Every state has a statute of limitations that dictates how long a party has to bring a claim against those that injured them or breached the contract or duty owed to them. In Florida the statute of limitations includes but is not limited to the following:

Libel/Slander 2 yrs. §95.11(4)(g)

The 1979 Piper Cheyenne PA-31T1 took off from Orlando Executive Airport at about 3:20pm Sunday and reached an altitude of 8,000 feet en route to Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport before the tragic accident.[1] “He was given clearance to land, any runway he chose, because he did make a distress call,” said Ralph Hicks, senior accident investigator for the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB).

It dove toward the ground, crashed and burst into flames in a wooded area about a quarter of a mile northwest of the runway. According to Hicks, the aircraft fragmented into more than 100 pieces.
