Should you call an attorney after a Florida car accident?  Well, that depends on the circumstances of your accident and your injuries.  In a relatively minor accident, with no injuries, you probably do not need an attorney.  Also, if your injuries are minor and you recover without the need for medical treatment, again you may not need the assistance of an attorney.  In the event that your injuries persist and require medical attention, including chiropractor, physiotherapy and/or massage, then you should really consider consulting with a personal injury attorney.  Even soft tissue injuries can result in health care expenses, and longer term consequences, that can negatively impact your recreation, employment and household activities.  If your injuries are very serious, then you should absolutely consult with an attorney as soon as possible.   When in doubt, it is better to consult with an attorney, because there is no risk and most often, no cost.  

In Florida, you can claim for compensation when you have been injured in an accident caused by someone else.  These cases are defended by insurance companies, and they have virtually limitless resources to defend and minimize your claim.  Do not let the insurance company defeat your claim, call an attorney experienced in personal injury law for a consultation.  With our firm, there is no obligation to hire us, and our consultations are always free so that you can ask all of your questions and make an informed decision for your future.  If we accept your case, you pay us nothing unless we recover money for you.

During season in Florida, it is common to see many cars and trucks with out of state license plates, including vehicles with Ontario or Quebec tags.  If an accident occurs with a car from Ontario or Quebec, Canada, you may be wondering about your rights to recover for your injuries and losses.  Fortunately, your rights are governed by the place where the accident occurred - Florida.  As such, when an out of state vehicle is operated in the State of Florida, it will have the same rights and responsibilities required of all Florida drivers.  This also means that Canadian drives can bring a claim under Florida law if they are injured by another driver. 

If you are injured because of an accident caused by an out of state vehicle, including a vehicle from Canada, you can still advance claims to recover money for your injuries.  It is also noteworthy that many Canadian vehicles have comprehensive insurance coverage that includes liability coverage in the event that you are injured.  Filing a lawsuit against an Ontario or Quebec vehicle can bring some challenges when it comes to serving the pleadings.  Our law firm has handled many cross-border accident claims, and as such, we can assist if you have a claim against a person or company that resides in Canada.

Florida Motorcycles, scooters and bicycles have the same right of way that cars do. Although many motorcycle riders apply defensive riding techniques, sometimes they fall victim to inattentive drivers of cars and trucks.  Florida motorcycle accidents often occur when a car or truck driver fails to observe the motorcycle and does not yield the right of way.  Left turning cars and trucks or vehicles changing lanes are a major source of serious motorcycle crash injuries and fatalities.   After the fact, the car and truck drivers try to blame the motorcyclist by claiming that the bike was speeding and came out of nowhere.  The truth is often that the motorcycle was there to be seen the whole time, but the driver was not paying attention or misjudged the distance.  

An experienced Florida motorcycle injury lawyer can help you following a motorcycle crash caused by another driver's failure to yield to the right of way.  While each motorcycle accident will have a unique set of facts and circumstances, there are some common and recurring elements in fail to yield motorcycle crashes.
