How to choose a lawyer in Villas

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 negotiate differently when a case may go to court. Look for knowledge of local courts and insurers, and ask for clear contingency terms in writing, including what percentage you pay and who covers costs. Find out who personally handles your case day to day. Finally, check the attorney's standing with the State Bar. Use these questions as you compare the local attorneys in our directory, and choose the one who answers them plainly.

What to do after an accident in Villas

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. A local attorney can explain how the deadline applies to your situation.

Florida injury law, in brief

Florida gives injury claimants 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, though medical malpractice remains pure comparative. See the Florida page for full details.
