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.

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.
Can I get hurt at work and still have a claim if I am undocumented?
Yes. Your immigration status does not erase your right to recover for a workplace injury in Florida. Your information stays confidential with us.
