Florida rules that shape a claim like this

  • Modified comparative fault — barred at 51% or more fault (as of 2023 tort reform)
  • 2-year statute of limitations for personal injury (reduced from 4 years in 2023)
  • No-fault PIP state — PIP coverage required on all policies
  • Assignment of Benefits (AOB) reform limits contractor direct claims

Florida's Office of Insurance Regulation oversees one of the most complex insurance markets in the US, particularly for property insurance due to hurricane exposure. Major tort reform in 2023 changed Florida from a pure comparative to modified comparative fault state.
