Understanding Florida Car Accident Laws

Navigating Florida's legal system is complex. Our team will handle every detail, but here are the key laws affecting your claim:

• No-Fault & PIP Insurance: Florida requires you to carry Personal Injury Protection (PIP) to cover your first $10,000 in medical bills (at 80%) and lost wages (at 60%). Crucially, you must see a doctor within 14 days of the crash to use these benefits.

• The "Serious Injury" Threshold: To sue an at-fault driver for pain and suffering, your injury must be legally "serious," such as a permanent injury or significant disfigurement.

• Modified Comparative Negligence: As of 2023, you can be barred from recovering compensation if you are found to be more than 50% at fault. If you are less than 50% at fault, your recovery is reduced by your percentage of fault.

• Statute of Limitations: You have two years from the date of the accident to file a lawsuit in most cases.

• T-Bone Accidents: Frequently occurring at intersections, these side-impact crashes can cause significant harm, especially to passengers.
• Head-On Collisions: These are among the most dangerous and often fatal types of accidents, typically involving high speeds or impaired drivers.
• Sideswipe Accidents: Occur when two vehicles are traveling side-by-side, often due to unsafe lane changes.

• Hit-and-Run Accidents: When a driver leaves the scene, it complicates the claims process and may require assistance in tracking down the responsible party.

FAQs About Orlando Car Accident Claims

How much is my car accident case worth?

The value depends on your medical bills, lost income, the severity of your injuries, and the long-term impact on your life. Our attorneys will conduct a detailed evaluation to determine the full and fair value of your claim.

The at-fault driver was a tourist in a rental car. Can I still file a claim?

Yes. These cases can be more complex, but our experienced team knows how to navigate claims involving rental car insurance and out-of-state drivers to ensure you are compensated.

What if the other driver was uninsured?

If you have Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist (UM/UIM) coverage on your policy, you can file a claim with your own insurance company. This is a critical protection, and we can help you fight for the benefits you are owed.

How long will my case take?

The duration depends on the complexity of your case, whether liability is disputed, and whether the case settles or goes to trial. Many cases resolve in a few months, but some may take longer.
