What should I do after a South Florida crash?
- Put safety and medical needs first. Call 911 for an emergency or an injury crash. Follow emergency responders’ instructions and seek appropriate medical evaluation.
- Preserve what you already have. Keep original scene photographs, vehicle photographs, dashcam footage, witness details and the crash-report number. Save ride receipts and app screenshots if Uber or Lyft was involved.
- Keep a simple record of the impact. Save medical paperwork, bills, prescription receipts, missed-work information, towing charges and insurance correspondence. Describe symptoms and limitations accurately.
- Ask about time-sensitive evidence. Nearby business video, vehicle data and other records may not remain available indefinitely. Tell your attorney what cameras or witnesses you noticed.
You do not need a complete file before calling. The Florida Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles crash-report page explains how to request a report.
How we evaluate your accident claim
We start with the collision facts, potential insurance coverage, medical history and the ways the injuries affect your work and daily life. We examine disputed fault, available photographs and video, witness accounts and relevant records. A low offer or an insurer’s denial is something to investigate; it does not explain the whole case.
We also look for facts that can change the claim: whether a driver was working, whether a commercial or rideshare vehicle was involved, whether another vehicle left the scene, and whether more than one insurance policy may apply. Each issue requires evidence and a review of the actual policy language.
Which insurance may apply?
Personal injury protection (PIP) may pay part of eligible medical expenses and lost income, subject to Florida law and policy terms. Florida’s PIP statute generally requires qualifying initial services and care within 14 days for medical benefits. That is a coverage requirement, not a reason to postpone needed care. See section 627.736, Florida Statutes.
Bodily injury liability insurance may cover an at-fault person’s responsibility for your injuries. Uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage may provide another source of recovery when the applicable requirements are met. Vehicle-damage coverage and an injury claim involve different issues. We review the available policies rather than assume coverage from an insurance card alone.
Questions accident clients often ask
How much is my case worth?
There is no reliable online formula. An evaluation depends on fault, the medical evidence, causation, prognosis, lost earnings, effects on daily life, coverage and collectability. A vehicle photograph or diagnosis alone cannot establish a case value.
The initial consultation is free. Before you decide whether to hire the firm, we explain the proposed attorney fees, case costs, and who is responsible for those costs under the written agreement.
How long do I have to act?
Many Florida negligence actions are subject to a two-year limitations period under section 95.11, Florida Statutes. The applicable deadline depends on the claim, dates and parties; exceptions and separate notice requirements may apply. Do not wait for a deadline to seek advice or preserve evidence.
