Florida drivers experience around 400,000 auto accidents a year.

With all those crashes, one or more drivers are at fault. Florida is a no-fault state, meaning a driver’s insurance must pay for their injuries regardless of fault. However, even in a no-fault state, the driver who caused the accident can still face a lawsuit.

If you have been involved in a car accident in Florida where you or a loved one has been injured and there is going to be some sort of settlement involved from an insurance company you need to understand that a Florida driver’s legally mandated personal injury insurance only covers 80% of their medical costs and 60% of lost wages. The personal injury insurance caps benefits at $10,000 for medical and disability benefits and up to $5,000 for wrongful death.

The driver responsible for the accident (or their insurance company) should pay for the injuries they caused.

If you have experienced a car accident, we absolutely think you should get a Florida car insurance lawyer to help with your case.

The Abrahamson & Uiterwyk Attorneys and Injury Law Team

“A system of hiring an attorney on an hourly basis rewards inefficiency, creates delays and commonly creates negative issues between the lawyer and the client. Representing clients on a contingency basis in which the law firm earns a percentage of the settlement, however, is much more rewarding for the client and the injury attorneys.”

– Erik Abrahamson, Injury Attorney & Partner

Here are some case settlement examples. Settlement amounts vary significantly based on the individual circumstances of each case.

$5,000,000 Settlement for a Car Accident

Our client, who is a medical doctor, was stopped at a green traffic signal due to an ambulance responding to an emergency call. The Defendant driver was unable to stop and collided with the rear of our client’s vehicle at a high rate of speed pushing it forward into the intersection. Both vehicles sustained significant property damage with our client’s vehicle being totaled.

The client was transported from the scene by ambulance to a local emergency room where he complained of neck pain radiating into his arms. He had no prior significant history of neck pain. He was treated at the hospital and then underwent a course of physical therapy. An MRI of his neck revealed multiple large, herniated discs. After conservative treatment failed to alleviate his pain, he elected to undergo a lengthy and complex two-part surgery where his surgeon went in both the front and back of his neck and fused four levels of his cervical spine. Unfortunately, during the surgery he suffered a spinal cord leak and he had to return for emergency surgery days later. Following the second surgery, he suffered from severe debilitating pain due to nerve damage and his left arm was severely compromised. He was diagnosed by physicians with a condition known as Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (“CRPS”) and underwent numerous stellate ganglion nerve blocks injections and ketamine infusions. Unfortunately, nothing the doctors tried helped alleviate his debilitating pain.

Our firm proactively filed a lawsuit early on and undertook extensive discovery. Depositions were taken of the defendant driver and other witnesses. In addition, our firm retained numerous expert witnesses including a life care planner/physiatrist, who evaluated our client’s future medical care needs, an economist, who determined the cost of our client’s future care and an accident reconstructionist, who assisted in establishing the defendant’s fault for causing the accident. We also obtained pain management / CRPS specialists, a radiologist, and a spine surgeon to educate the jury regarding the nature and extent of the injuries our client had suffered. The defendants also hired several experts, including their own spine surgeon, as well as other witnesses to dispute the cost of our client’s medical treatment and the need for future medical care. The defense even hired their own accident reconstructionist to claim that the client could have safely proceeded through the intersection without stopping for the ambulance.

After the case was set for trial, the defense made their first offer of $1,500,000.00. We immediately rejected this offer as it was insufficient to fairly compensate our client for his tremendous losses. The defense made several more offers before proposing to settle the case for $3,100,000.00. We rejected all of these offers and insisted that the defense pay our client just compensation. During this time, the parties undertook depositions of the expert witnesses. Most notably, at the deposition of the defendant’s expert spine surgeon, we were able to establish that the crash caused the need for surgery and the subsequent surgical complications resulting in lifelong damages. With the trial date approaching, the defense recognized that their liability was substantial. They filed two written proposals for settlement for $4.0 million and $4.25 million which we also rejected. Finally, following some late negotiations, we accepted the defense’s offer of $5,000,000.00 and the case was settled. In all we rejected eight offers before settling for an amount that was $3,500,000.00 more than the defense initially wanted to pay our client.

$165,000 Settlement for an Auto Accident in 2023

We represented a 31-year-old client in this car crash case. Our client was traveling south on Broad Street in Brooksville, FL approaching the intersection with Whitman Road. The defendant, traveling the opposite direction on Broad St. failed to see our client and attempted to turn left onto Whitman Rd. directly in front of our client causing a serious crash.

Our client was transported to the hospital with head, neck, and back pain immediately after the accident. There he was examined and underwent CT scans and was told to seek follow-up treatment. Our client began treatment with a sport medicine physician, who initially recommended MRI scans for the neck and back. These scans revealed herniated spinal discs in both the neck and lower back. Our client was thereafter referred to an orthopedic surgeon who performed nerve blocks and epidural steroid injections to help relieve the pain.

In March of 2023, the Florida Legislature passed a tort reform bill that disadvantaged injured people in numerous ways. The new law applied to any case filed in court after it was passed. Therefore, we proactively filed a complaint on behalf of our client in circuit court before the new law took effect so that the previous law would apply to his case. The defendant’s insurance company hired an attorney, and we agree to hold off serving the complaint on the defendant while we attempted to negotiate a settlement for our client. Initially, the defense offered only $75,000.00. We pushed them hard to negotiate in good faith, letting them know that we were ready and willing to litigate the case for our client if they were unwilling to make a fair offer. Ultimately, we were able to convince them to more than double their offer, and the case settled for $165,000.00. Our client was thrilled with the result in the case.

You’ve just been in a car accident, do you need a car accident lawyer? As we mentioned before, a car accident attorney is not always needed when you’ve been involved in an accident, so when is it needed? There are many reasons why you would want to contact a car accident lawyer near you about retaining their services and pursuing a personal injury claim. After your accident, you should ask yourself these six questions to help you decide if contacting a lawyer is the right decision:

Am I or a loved one injured? It is very important to seek medical attention after you’ve been involved in a car accident, even a minor one, since injuries like whiplash, sciatica, or back injuries can sometimes take days or even weeks to show up. Neglecting to seek medical attention could lead to more serious injuries such as herniated discs. Read more about ankle and foot injuries, trimalleolar ankle fracture settlements and herniated disc settlement without surgery in this discussion.
Did I lose time at my job as a result of this accident? Loss of wages is a very real part of being involved in a car accident. If you are injured and unable to work, your employment prospects could be negatively impacted.
Was there significant property damage? Even if you don’t end up seriously injured after a car accident your vehicle and the belongings inside of it could be completely destroyed and insurance is not always able to provide the amount necessary to replace these items. There may be some discussion around road hazards and damage to your car after a wreck, we can help with that, too!
Has your car accident insurance claim been denied? Insurance companies thrive on loopholes, if they can find a way to keep from paying they will and this includes car accidents. If your attorney cannot negotiate a settlement, they may recommend filing an insurance lawsuit. Learn more about Farmers insurance lawsuits as well as other insurance disputes.
Was the insurance settlement too small to cover all expenses? As mentioned above, there are cap amounts on how much an insurance company is required to pay after a car accident. Very often those amounts don’t cover the full cost of expenses incurred after the accident, especially if you are dealing with serious injuries, such as if you are seeking compensation for a fractured sternum.
Was it a hit-and-run accident? Hit-and-run car accidents can make it feel like there is no one to hold accountable. You need a hit-and-run accident lawyer to help you get the compensation you deserve.

If you answered yes to any of these questions, it’s time to contact an experienced car accident attorney in your area. They will be able to advise you on the best way to proceed and help prepare a strong case for why you deserve more significant compensation after your accident. And since we work on a contingency fee basis you don’t need to worry about paying upfront. We only get paid if you win.

Car crash injury lawyer Car Accident Lawyers It is important to note as far as a timeframe for when to get an attorney after a car accident in Florida goes, the sooner the better. There is a statute of limitations for personal injury claims in the state of Florida and once that has run out it isn’t possible to pursue legal action. You typically have 2 years to submit a claim which is why it is important to reach out to a qualified car wreck as soon as you can after your accident to get things moving. Our team of aggressive personal injury lawyers in Florida are here to fight for you.

FLORIDA CAR ACCIDENT LAWYERS

9 Things That Might Impact Your Florida Car Accident Case

Your Own Negligence Played Too Big a Role in the Accident
The Statute of Limitations Has Expired
The Accident Didn’t Take Place in Florida
Your Injuries Are Not of A Serious Nature
Your Case Presents Medical Care Issues
You Are Shopping Around For The Lawyer That Offers The Most Money
You Refuse to Take Your Lawyer’s Advice
You Have Unrealistic Expectations About the Value of Your Claim
Your Case is too Risky to Pursue

Your Own Negligence Played Too Big a Role in the Accident

Florida is a modified comparative negligence state. This means that if you are found to be no more than 50% at fault for the accident, your recovery is reduced by the same proportion as your percentage of fault. As an example, if you are found to be 20% at fault in an accident, you may still recover 80% of your damages in a lawsuit. If, however, your percentage of fault is found to be more than 50%, you are barred from any recovery under the law.

Return to Top ↑

The Statute of Limitations Has Expired

After an accident, you only have a certain amount of time to file a lawsuit. This is called the statute of limitations, and your Florida car accident attorney must abide by this law. The statute of limitations varies depending on the reason behind your lawsuit and the state law.

Lawmakers create statutes of limitations because they don’t want victims to sue years after an accident. Judicial efficiency requires lawsuits to proceed soon after the accident. Also, witnesses and medical exams are likely to be more accurate and persuasive soon after your accident. For these reasons, statutes of limitations make sense, even if they don’t seem fair to victims.

In Florida, a statute of limitations applies to car accident injuries. This means you can’t wait too long to file your lawsuit, or a judge may toss your lawsuit out. To avoid the Florida statute of limitations, contact a Florida car accident attorney soon after your accident.

Get a Free, No Obligation Case Review

The truth is, speaking with a Florida car accident attorney about your case is a no-risk, all-reward proposition. If you’ve been injured in an accident, it’s well worth your time to consult with an attorney so that you can learn your best path forward, even if that doesn’t mean hiring a lawyer.

Return to Top ↑

The Accident Didn’t Take Place in Florida

You’ll want to consider where your accident took place when choosing a law firm. That’s because tort law differs from state to state. In the United States, we have federal law and state law. Federal law governs things like civil rights, tax fraud, and copyright violations. However, state law governs most aspects of personal injury cases, like the statute of limitations or non-economic damages caps.

Also, you must file a lawsuit in the proper jurisdiction, which means the court allowed to hear the case. In general, you should file your lawsuit in the state where your accident took place. Other options include filing your lawsuit in the defendant’s home state or in your state if certain exceptions apply. You can sue in federal court if you have at least $75,000 in damages, and you and the other driver are from different states.

Our Florida car accident attorneys are experts in Florida law, where we have decades of experience. If your accident took place in Florida, we can explain the Florida laws that apply to your accident injury.

Whether you were injured in Florida or another state, give us a call, and we can discuss your out-of-state car accident case.

Your Injuries Are Not of A Serious Nature

Car accidents are terrible, and if you walked away from one without serious injuries, consider yourself lucky. However, that good fortune means that you might not have substantial damages for a lawsuit.

Lawsuits take time and money to negotiate or bring to court. So, a Florida car accident attorney evaluates your case to make sure you can get enough money for your effort. This requires an attorney to calculate all possible damages from your car accident.

In Florida, personal injury damages come in three different categories.

Economic Damages

Economic damages reimburse you for actual expenses resulting from your lawsuit. This includes things like medical bills, car repairs, and lost wages. A Florida car accident attorney adds up your receipts (or estimates) and presents them to the defendant’s attorneys. These damages are usually simple and straightforward.

Non-Economic Damages

Non-economic damages can be a little more challenging to calculate. These damages cover your emotional injuries, such as the pain and suffering that you experienced because of your accident. Pain and suffering can show up in forms like anxiety, depression, or insomnia. Loss of companionship or loss of consortium also fits into this category. This means that people in your life can’t enjoy activities with you like they did before your accident.

Punitive Damages

Punitive damages aren’t awarded as often as the other forms of damages. Punitive damages exist for times when the defendant deserves punishment for bad behavior. For instance, if you were hit by a drunk driver, the court might award punitive damages.

As you can see, your injuries alone don’t form the total basis for your claim. We can help you calculate other damages and determine if you have enough damages to pursue a lawsuit.

florida car accident lawyer

Your Case Presents Medical Care Issues

If you were seriously injured in a car accident, you might need long-term medical care. For instance, your injuries might require extensive physical therapy or a live-in nurse. It also takes time to diagnose some injuries like post-concussion syndrome or chronic thyroid disorders after a car accident.

Long-term medical care can mean enormous medical bills. These medical bills significantly impact a settlement. Your personal injury attorney should request full compensation for all medical costs that result from your accident.

Because our attorneys value transparent relationships with our clients, we only take cases that we think we can win. If long term medical care issues concern you, we will discuss our expertise in settling those expenses before you hire us.

Long term medical care is stressful enough without adding financial burden. You need a Florida car accident lawyer who will make sure you don’t have financial worries on top of your long-term injuries.

You Are Shopping Around For The Lawyer That Offers The Most Money

Our Florida car accident attorneys have recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for our clients. However, we value honesty and integrity, and these values prevent us from deceiving clients.

After hearing your story, we conduct a free case evaluation. We calculate possible damages and let you know if you have a strong case. We don’t want to overpromise and underdeliver.

For that reason, you may find other Florida car accident attorneys who promise you more money. These lawyers may or may not be able to deliver on that big figure. We can’t guarantee victory in every case, either. However, we only take your case if we think we can win it. We don’t charge you anything until we successfully settle your case.

We work promptly as we aggressively negotiate with insurance companies to get the most money possible in the shortest time. With ten attorneys and 40 legal staff, we have the resources needed to move your case quickly to settlement.

However, we won’t promise inflated settlement amounts to get your business. If you want honest, experienced legal representation, call our Florida car accident lawyers for a free consultation, or reach out to our Tampa car crash injury lawyers for local support.

You Refuse to Take Your Lawyer’s Advice

You need a car accident lawyer you can trust. After all, you’re hiring someone for professional advice, and you have a lot of money on the line. If you can’t trust your lawyer’s advice, then you probably need a new attorney.

Here are a few things you should know about our Florida car accident attorneys’ advice:

We offer a free consultation. We’ll review your case and let you know if it’s something we can handle.
All our communications are confidential. Our discussions are protected by attorney-client privilege, which means the court cannot force your attorney to disclose your confidential communications.
Attorney “work product” is protected from discovery as well. This means your attorney doesn’t have to hand over documents that detail thoughts or legal theories about your case.
We may not always tell you what you want to hear, but we’ll tell you the truth. We base our legal strategies on decades of experience with cases like yours.
You have the final say. You hire us, and we serve you. This means that you have the final say on any settlement agreement.

When you’ve experienced an injury due to someone’s negligence, it becomes harder to trust others. We understand that and welcome the chance to show you we have your best interest in mind. We’ll listen with compassion and respond with expert legal advice.

You Have Unrealistic Expectations About the Value of Your Claim

You probably feel pain and outrage over your injury. We aim to get you a maximum dollar amount to compensate for that pain.

However, we know that the sky is not the limit. Our 30 years of personal injury experience show us how much money you’re likely to receive for a particular injury. Holding out for an unreasonable amount may hurt your chances of receiving a fair Florida car accident settlement.

So, we are honest with you from the beginning of your case. We give you recommendations for a reasonable damages calculation. It’s up to you to approve that amount. As always, you have the final say.

If you shop around, you might find an attorney who will promise you inflated damages amounts. That kind of talk seems exciting at the beginning of a case but ultimately leads to disappointment. We keep things realistic from the first time we meet you.

Return to Top ↑

Your Case is too Risky to Pursue

Sometimes the risk of a case is not worth the reward. If you don’t have a strong case, we may not want to risk our legal resources on it.

We take this position because we work on contingency. This means that you pay nothing unless we win you money. You also pay us nothing while we work on your case, no matter how long it takes. If we lose, we absorb all the legal costs of preparing for trial. This financial commitment means we only take cases that we think we can win.

To be clear, we have 30 years of experience handling almost every type of personal injury you can name. We’re not intimidated by any type of case. We have the resources to fight big insurance companies in headline-grabbing cases.

However, we’re practical. Our Florida car accident lawyers tell you right away if we think your case is unwinnable. That’s only fair to you and us.
