WOW! TIME flies when you’re having fun! Another year has almost passed. Soon we will be all be carving turkey and watching our favorite football team play over Thanksgiving weekend. Many will also begin making Christmas lists and begin shopping. Others will be starting to look at setting goals for 2013.

On the issue of TIME, once again we are doing our best to provide vital legal information that you need. Remember, after Jan. 1, 2013, if you are in an auto accident in Florida you only have 14 days to seek medical attention or you will lose a VITAL part of your automobile insurance benefits that you have been paying for, which is PIP, Personal Injury Protection. To really help us drive home the theme of 14 days and hopefully create some awareness about how important this 14 day time frame is, did you know:

• Franklin Pierce was the 14th President of the United States
• Vermont was the 14th state admitted to the Union
• The #14 Nascar is driven by Tony Stewart
• We live in the 14th Judicial Circuit
• Valentine’s Day is on the 14th of February

Finally, we are giving away14 free 2013 wall calendars this month to remind everyone about the critical importance of this 14 day rule. To receive your calendar, simply e-mail cdykes@syfrett-dykes.com with your name and where you want the calendar mailed to and it will be on its way!

If you have questions regarding this new 14 day rule, please don’t hesitate to contact us. We want you to understand and be able to make informed decisions if the need arises.

Until next month, Take Care & God Bless!
