Motor Vehicle Accidents
From a rear-end collision to a catastrophic highway crash, motor vehicle accidents are the claims I know best — and the ones insurers most aggressively try to minimize.
Florida's no-fault system, PIP coverage, and comparative-negligence rules make car accident claims more complicated than they first appear. A fast settlement offer rarely accounts for future medical care, lost earning capacity, or the full value of your injuries.
I investigate liability thoroughly, document every category of damage, and present your claim in the format carriers take seriously — because I spent two decades on the other side of that desk.

The claims-adjuster advantage in auto claims
Auto carriers use software and standardized formulas to value injury claims. I know which inputs drive those numbers, where adjusters have discretion, and how to document your case so neither the algorithm nor the person reviewing it can justify a lowball figure.

Ask a QuestionFlorida is a no-fault state — can I still recover from the other driver?
Yes. PIP covers initial medical bills regardless of fault, but you can pursue the at-fault driver when your injuries meet Florida's serious-injury threshold. I'll evaluate whether your case qualifies.
The insurance company already offered me a settlement. Should I take it?
Almost never accept the first offer without review. Early offers are designed to close the file before the full extent of your injuries is known — a free consultation often reveals significant additional value.
How long do I have to file after a car accident in Florida?
Florida's statute of limitations for most negligence claims is generally two years from the accident date, though exceptions exist. The sooner you act, the stronger the evidence and your case.
