Filing a Personal Injury Claim in Clay County
After a serious accident leaves you injured, turn to the aggressive legal team at the Law Offices of Ron Sholes, P.A. Since 2003, our firm has been fighting on behalf of the injured throughout Florida and Georgia. At our Orange Park office, we represent clients in Clay County who have suffered severe, life-altering injuries and losses. With over a century of combined experience, our team has what it takes to fight tirelessly for you. We don’t just settle—our Orange Park personal injury lawyers fight for every penny you deserve!
Why File a Personal Injury Claim?
When you are seriously injured in an accident or lose a loved one due to another person or party’s negligence, taking legal action may be the last thing on your mind—and reasonably so! With everything else on your plate—from securing proper medical care to managing daily expenses while you are out of work to easing the physical and emotional pain and suffering you are going through—finding an attorney and navigating the legal process can seem like another burden.
However, by law, you are entitled to file a personal injury claim and seek fair compensation for your damages when they were caused by someone else’s negligent or wrongful conduct. Financial compensation cannot undo what you have been through, but it can provide you with the resources you need to heal.
By filing a personal injury claim or lawsuit, you may be able to recover compensation for the following economic and non-economic damages:
- Emergency medical care
- Ambulance fees
- Hospitalization
- Ongoing treatments and future medical costs
- Lost income/wages
- Future lost earnings
- Pain and suffering
- Lost earning capacity due to disability
- Inconvenience
- Lost quality of life
- Property damage
You should not have to face the consequences of someone else’s poor choices on your own. Instead, allow our experienced legal team to handle the details of your case and fight for the maximum recovery you are owed while you focus on getting back on your feet.
How Long Do You Have to File a Personal Injury Lawsuit in Florida?
Like other states, Florida has a statute of limitations on personal injury claims. This means that you have a limited time to bring a claim or file a lawsuit after being injured or losing a loved one.
In most cases, you have four years from the date of the accident and/or injury to bring a personal injury claim in the state of Florida. However, there are some exceptions to this rule. When you do not “discover” your injury immediately, the statute of limitations may extend to four years from the date on which you discovered or reasonably should have discovered your injury. Additionally, in the event of wrongful death, you only have two years from the date of death to bring your claim.
Other exceptions that may affect how long you have to file a claim include when:
- The injury resulted from medical malpractice
- The injury was caused by a defective product
- A person is injured due to assault/battery
- The injured party was a minor at the time of the injury
- The liable party is a government entity
- The injury involves childhood sexual abuse
In any case, it is important that you work quickly so that evidence is not lost. We recommend that you contact an Orange Park personal injury lawyer at our firm right away to learn more about the deadline to file your specific claim and how our team can help you get started.

Why You Need a Personal Injury Attorney
While you are not required by law to work with an attorney on your personal injury claim, having an experienced legal team on your side is incredibly invaluable. Most personal injury claims are filed against insurance companies. These companies have their own legal teams that are ready to fight claims and reduce payouts. Often, insurance adjusters will use tricky tactics to get claimants to unwittingly admit fault for an accident or downplay the severity of their injuries. Adjusters also often try to argue that a claimant’s injuries are actually a pre-existing condition and, therefore, the insurance company is not liable for them.
Dealing with the insurance company after an accident can be a nightmare. With the Law Offices of Ron Sholes, P.A. on your side, you don’t have to worry about discussing your claim with insurance adjusters or their legal teams whatsoever. Instead, our attorneys will handle everything, allowing you to focus on your physical recovery while we fight for the financial resources you need and deserve.
