Frequently Asked Questions

  • How long after a car accident can you claim an injury?

    The sooner, the better.

    Evidence has a tendency to degrade over time — memories fade, physical evidence gets lost or deteriorates, etc.

    The hard deadline, however, is set by the Florida statute of limitations. The statute of limitations imposes a deadline beyond which you cannot file a personal injury lawsuit

    Under Florida's statute of limitations, you generally have four years from the date of a car accident in which to file a lawsuit to pursue compensation from the driver or party responsible for the accident and your injuries.

    What if its a Wrongful death?

    A wrongful death claim must be filed within two years of the date of death of the victim, even if the victim doesn’t die until some time after the accident.

  • How much can I expect from an auto accident settlement?

    A car accident settlement can have many components depending on the seriousness of the accident and the circumstances surrounding it.

    Typical components of a car accident claim include compensatory damages for:

    • Property damage

    • Medical expenses

    • Lost earnings

    • Incidental expenses

    • Pain and suffering

    This amount could be two to five times the amount of your compensation for medical expenses.

  • What should I do after an accident?

    The actions you take after a car accident could make or break your personal injury claim.

  • Do I need to be a U.S. resident to have a personal injury case?

    The laws in the United States apply both to citizens and residents. People living in the United States without getting their citizenship can still benefit from many of the same protections as citizens and have to comply with the same criminal laws.

    What about if I traveled to the US and got in an accident?

    Visitors to the United States have many of the same legal protection as residents. They can make a claim against the insurance policies that cover United States citizens and residents. In some cases, foreign nationals can even file civil lawsuits using the domestic court system.

  • What is the required car insurance coverage under Florida law?

    Florida law requires both property damage and injury coverage.

    Specifically, you must have at least $10,000 of Personal Injury Protection (PIP), as well as $10,000 of Property Damage Liability (PDL) coverage. PDL coverage will pay for the damage a driver causes to other people’s property and is fault-based coverage.
