Breach Of Fiduciary Duty Statute Of Limitations in Florida

Florida’s statute of limitations for a breach of fiduciary duty claim is governed by Fla. Stat. § 95.11 (2024), as amended by 2023 HB 837 effective March 24, 2023. The statute establishes a two-year limitations period for such claims. This period generally begins to run when the cause of action accrues, meaning when the breach is discovered or should have been discovered with reasonable diligence. The official statute provides the precise text and any applicable exceptions or tolling provisions. The worked example below illustrates how the two-year period is applied to a specific set of facts. To estimate the limitations deadline for a particular situation, the DocketMath calculator can compute the result using the governing statute.
