How to choose a lawyer in Durbin

Start by looking for a lawyer who focuses on personal injury rather than one who handles it occasionally. Ask about a real trial track record, since insurers treat cases differently when they know an attorney is willing to go to court. Look for knowledge of local courts and the insurers that handle claims in the area. Get clear contingency terms in writing, including what percentage the lawyer takes and who pays case costs. Ask who personally handles your case and whether others will work on it. Finally, check the attorney's standing with the State Bar. Our directory lets you compare local attorneys on these points before you call.

What to do after an accident in Durbin

Get medical care first, even if you feel fine, because some injuries show up later. Document the scene and your injuries with photos and notes, and exchange and gather information from everyone involved. Avoid admitting fault or giving a recorded statement to an insurer, and keep records of treatment, bills, and lost work. Then act promptly: Florida has a filing deadline of 2 years from the date of injury for claims on or after March 24, 2023, while older claims had 4 years. Missing that deadline can end your ability to recover, so contact a local attorney early.

Florida injury law, in brief

Florida gives injured people 2 years from the date of injury to file, for claims on or after March 24, 2023; older claims had 4 years. Florida uses modified comparative negligence with a 51% bar, so you recover if you are not more than 50% at fault, while medical malpractice remains pure comparative.
