How to choose a lawyer in Whiskey Creek

Choose 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 with firms willing to go to court. Confirm the lawyer knows local courts and the insurers you may face. Get the contingency terms in writing: what percentage, when it applies, and who pays costs. Ask who personally handles your case day to day, and whether that is the attorney you met or a paralegal. Finally, check the lawyer's standing with the State Bar. Use these questions as you compare the local attorneys in our directory.

What to do after an accident in Whiskey Creek

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 before you understand your rights. Keep records of treatment, bills, and any time missed from 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 it can end your claim, so contact a lawyer early.

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.
