Under Florida's revised statute of limitations, you generally have two years from the date of your accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. Missing this deadline may result in losing your right to recover any compensation, so it is important to contact an attorney as soon as possible.
After an accident, call 911 and seek medical attention even if your injuries seem minor. Document the accident scene by taking photos of vehicles, damage, injuries, and road conditions. Collect contact and insurance information from the other driver and gather witness names. Do not speak with the other driver's insurance company before consulting an attorney.
Under Florida's modified comparative negligence system, you can still recover compensation even if you were partially at fault for the accident, as long as you are not more than 50% responsible. Your total recovery will be reduced in proportion to your share of fault.
No. Englander Peebles works on a contingency fee basis, which means you do not pay any upfront costs. The firm only gets paid if they win a financial settlement or verdict on your behalf, allowing you to pursue your case without financial risk.
