HAVE YOU BEEN INJURED IN A CAR ACCIDENT?
While vehicles are made safer every year, human behavior is becoming more reckless. Distracted driving causes more crashes per year than drunk driving. Recent changes to the law make recovering compensation for your injuries in a car wreck difficult, if not impossible, if you don't strictly comply with the new requirements. When someone's lack of attention wrecks your life, call us and let us walk you through the difficult legal process and get you back on the road to recovery.
We will investigate every possible contributing cause of an accident to ensure that you will receive full compensation for your injuries. Evaluating all of the facts involved in the cause of a motor vehicle accident requires skill and experience.
We will personally take over the investigation of your case so that you can concentrate on recovering from your injuries. If you wish we will assist you in finding an appropriate medical specialist to treat you, and we can make arrangements with your medical care providers to wait for payment until your case is resolved through settlement or trial.
Finding fault - Automobile accidents are generally decided using the law of negligence. A person who negligently operates a vehicle may be required to pay any damages caused by their negligence, either to person or property. Generally, people who operate automobiles must exercise "reasonable care under the circumstances." Failure to use reasonable care is the basis in most lawsuits for damages caused by an automobile accident.
We determine fault by looking at a number of factors. Some of these factors include
• Driving too fast or too slow
• Driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol
• Failing to signal while turning
• Disregarding weather or traffic conditions
• Disobeying traffic signs or signals
• Failing to drive on the right side of the road

Driving is an integral part of life for most residents of Florida. Unfortunately, while many trips both in and out of the city may be devoid of problems, encountering a negligent motorist can lead to a car crash resulting in devastating property damage and serious personal injury.
Of course, if an auto accident, whether with a car, truck, or motorcycle was the result of another driver’s negligence, you may have legal recourse to recover compensation for the damage caused to you or your property. Make sure to consider involving our firm before you submit a claim.
IMPORTANT: In early 2013, Florida enacted a set of strict PIP laws, which force injured parties to seek medical treatment soon after being involved in a motor vehicle accident – 14 days from the date of the event to be exact. Any delays in seeking emergency or non-emergency medical care from insurance-specified licensed medical physicians can reduce an injured party’s PIP benefits to zero.
Those who suffer property damage may file a liability claim against an at-fault driver, though, and those who suffer serious and permanent injury may pursue a bodily injury liability claim against the other driver.
