Taking effect tomorrow is a new tort liability statute that makes substantial changes in Florida's legal system dealing with negligence. Previously, a claim for negligence carried a four year statute of limitations. Florida now provides that negligence claims be brought within two years. For decades, Florida has been a comparative negligence state, in which a Plaintiff could collect damages based upon its jury determined percentage of fault, even if less than fifty per cent (50%).
