What to do after an injury
- Get medical care right away and follow through with treatment; gaps in care are used against you.
- Photograph the scene, the vehicles and your injuries, and get names of witnesses.
- Report the crash or incident, but do not give a recorded statement to the other side's insurer before talking to a lawyer.
- Keep every bill, record and piece of correspondence.
- Call us. Deadlines in Florida injury cases are short, and some notices are due within days.
Common questions
How long do I have to file an injury claim in Florida?
For most negligence claims the deadline is now two years from the injury, shorter for claims against government agencies, which also require pre-suit notice. Do not wait to find out which applies to you.
What does it cost to hire you for an injury case?
Personal injury cases are generally handled on a contingency fee: no fee unless there is a recovery. We explain the agreement in writing before you sign anything.
The insurance company already offered me money. Should I take it?
Not before you know the full extent of your injuries and what your claim is worth. Early offers are usually low, and accepting one ends your claim for good.
