Common legal questions
Real questions, answered by the attorney
What should I do after being a passenger in an auto accident?
As a passenger you are almost never at fault, and you may have claims against either driver's insurance — or both. Get medical attention first, document everything, and speak to an attorney before giving any recorded statement to an insurer.
A car hit me from behind and now the driver won't cooperate. What can I do?
Florida is a no-fault state, so your own PIP coverage pays first regardless of the other driver's cooperation. From there, an attorney can identify their insurer and pursue the at-fault driver for damages beyond what PIP covers.
The insurance company wants to settle for less than my claim is worth. Can I get more?
You are not required to accept the first offer — and it is usually far below what a claim is actually worth. Once the full extent of your injuries and treatment is known, we negotiate from evidence, not from the insurer's opening number.
Can I get medical treatment after an accident if I don't have PIP coverage myself?
Yes — options usually exist through the at-fault driver's coverage, your health insurance, or providers who treat accident victims on a lien. Don't skip treatment over coverage doubts: gaps in care hurt both your health and your claim.
Can I sue a hospital for a botched surgery?
Possibly — surgical errors can support a medical malpractice claim, but Florida imposes strict pre-suit requirements and deadlines, and these cases need prompt review by qualified experts. Contact an attorney as early as you can.
