Valet Parking Liability Laws in Florida
Governing Bailment Law
Florida common law bailment (based on control and possession)
Statute of Limitations
You have 4 years for property damage (FS §95.11(3)) to file a claim for valet parking damage in Florida.
Notable Application
Valet parking constitutes a bailment; parking receipts often contain disclaimers but gross negligence cannot be disclaimed.
Why evidence matters in Florida
Legal rights don't matter unless you can prove when damage occurred. CarShake creates GPS-verified, timestamped, SHA-256 hashed evidence of your car's condition before and after valet parking — admissible evidence that changes the outcome of disputes.
