Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do immediately after a car accident in Fort Lauderdale?

Call 911 to report the crash and get a police report number — you’ll need it for your insurance claim. Seek medical attention even if you feel fine, because many serious injuries like whiplash and internal bleeding don’t produce immediate symptoms. Document the scene with photos if you can do so safely, and avoid giving a recorded statement to any insurer before speaking with an attorney.

How are damages calculated in a Broward County personal injury case?

Damages include economic losses (medical bills, lost wages, future treatment costs) and non-economic losses (pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment of life). Florida eliminated its cap on non-economic damages in personal injury cases. An attorney evaluates all available insurance, including your PIP coverage, the at-fault driver’s bodily injury policy, and any umbrella policies.

How long does a personal injury lawsuit take in Broward County?

Most Broward County personal injury cases settle within 6 to 18 months without going to trial. Cases that proceed to the 17th Judicial Circuit courthouse at 201 SE 6th Street, Fort Lauderdale typically take 18 months to 3 years from filing to verdict, depending on court scheduling and case complexity.
