Car Accidents in Florida
Being involved in a motor vehicle accident in Florida can have a devastating impact on your life. In addition to the physical injuries and emotional trauma, there are also significant financial consequences that can arise from a car accident. From medical expenses to lost wages and property damage, it's important to understand your rights and options for seeking compensation.
In Florida, all drivers are required to carry a minimum of $10,000 in personal injury protection (PIP) coverage and $10,000 in property damage liability (PDL) coverage. PIP insurance covers 80% of your medical expenses and 60% of your lost wages if you are injured in a car accident, regardless of who is at fault. In some cases, it can be beneficial to file a personal injury claim with the help of a Florida car accident lawyer.
In Florida, there is a statute of limitations for filing a personal injury claim after a car accident. This means that there is a specific time frame in which you must file your claim in order to be eligible for compensation. It's important to consult with a Florida car accident lawyer who can help guide you through this process and ensure that all necessary paperwork is filed on time
