Your case

Slip and fall

A wet floor with no sign, a broken stair, or a dark parking lot can cause an injury that follows you for months. Florida premises law asks what the property owner knew and what they failed to fix. We prove it.

What we handle

  • Store, restaurant, and hotel falls
  • Apartment and parking-lot hazards
  • Inadequate maintenance and lighting
  • Negligent security injuries

FLORIDA

How Florida law affects your injury claim

Florida is a no-fault state. Your own PIP coverage pays up to $10,000 in medical bills and lost wages first, no matter who caused the crash, but only if you are treated within 14 days. Miss that window and you can lose those benefits.

Most injury claims in Florida now have a two-year deadline to file suit after the 2023 reform. Evidence also fades fast, and insurers move quickly to limit what they pay. The sooner an attorney protects your file, the stronger your position.

Florida follows modified comparative negligence. If you are found more than 50 percent at fault you may recover nothing, so how fault is framed matters. We build the record to keep blame where it belongs.

Our process

How your case moves forward

  1. Free case review

    You tell an attorney what happened, in English or Spanish. We tell you honestly whether you have a case.

  2. We protect your file

    We deal with the insurers, preserve evidence, and make sure you get the medical care your claim needs.

  3. We build the demand

    Once your treatment is clear, we document every loss and present a full demand to the at-fault party.

  4. We negotiate or file

    We push for a fair settlement. If the offer is not fair, we are ready to file suit and try the case.

  5. You get paid

    No fee unless we recover for you. When we do, we walk you through every number. Case costs and expenses may be the client's responsibility.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can I file a claim if I am not a citizen?

Yes. Your immigration status does not stop you from recovering after an injury in Florida. We work with many clients in exactly this situation, and your information stays private.

How long do I have to act?

Florida has strict deadlines, and evidence fades fast. The sooner you call, the more we can protect. A short call today costs you nothing and keeps your options open.

Will I actually talk to an attorney?

Yes. When you first call, our intake team takes your details so we can reach you quickly. The consultation itself is with an attorney. As your case moves you will also work with our case managers, and an attorney stays accountable for it start to finish. We keep our caseload small on purpose so your case gets real attention.

What should I do right after an accident?

Call the police first, and make sure a report is made. Then get medical care, document everything you can, and avoid giving a recorded statement to the insurer before you talk to us. Then call. We will guide the next steps in your language.

How much is my case worth?

It depends on your medical bills, lost wages, future care, and how the injury changed your life. Anyone promising a number before reviewing your case is guessing. We evaluate it honestly, for free.

How long will my case take?

Many injury claims resolve in months; cases that go to litigation take longer. We move your case with urgency and keep you updated at every step, so you are never left wondering.

Will I have to go to court?

We prepare every case as if it will go to trial.

What if I was partly at fault?

You can still recover in Florida as long as you are not more than 50 percent at fault; your recovery is just reduced by your share. Do not assume you have no case. Let us look first.

The store says it was my fault. Is that the end of it?

No. Stores say that to everyone. Florida allows recovery even if you share some fault, as long as you are not mostly to blame. Let us review it.
