How Florida Auto Accident Claims Work

Florida is a no-fault insurance state, which means your own Personal Injury Protection (PIP) coverage pays for initial medical bills and lost wages — regardless of who caused the crash. However, PIP only covers 80% of medical expenses up to $10,000. When injuries are serious — broken bones, herniated discs, traumatic brain injuries — you have the right to step outside the no-fault system and file a claim against the at-fault driver for full compensation.

PIP & No-Fault Insurance

Navigating Florida's mandatory PIP coverage and ensuring you receive every dollar you're owed.

Rideshare Liability

Uber and Lyft carry $1M policies, but getting them to pay requires navigating complex coverage tiers.

Uninsured & Underinsured Motorist

Protecting your claim when the at-fault driver has little or no insurance coverage.

Truck & Motorcycle Accidents

Commercial trucking cases involve federal regulations and multiple liable parties requiring specialized investigation.

Common Questions

Auto Accident Questions

What should I do immediately after a car accident?

Ensure your safety and call 911. Document the scene with photos, exchange information with other drivers, and get witness contact details. Seek medical attention even if you feel fine -- some injuries appear later. Do not admit fault or sign anything from insurance companies without consulting an attorney.

Who is liable in an Uber or Lyft accident?

Liability depends on whether the rideshare driver was logged into the app, waiting for a ride request, or actively transporting a passenger. Each stage triggers different insurance coverage tiers. Uber and Lyft carry up to $1 million in liability coverage when a ride is in progress.

How long do I have to file a car accident claim in Florida?

Under Florida's 2023 tort reform, you generally have 2 years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. However, you should report the accident to your PIP insurer within 14 days to preserve your no-fault benefits.
