How much does it cost to hire a personal injury attorney?

We work on a contingency fee basis. That means you pay nothing up front and no fee at all unless we recover compensation for you. Your initial consultation is always free.

What is the deadline to file a personal injury claim in Florida?

Florida's statute of limitations for most negligence-based personal injury claims is generally two years from the date of the injury. Deadlines vary by case type, so it is important to speak with an attorney as soon as possible to protect your rights.

What types of damages can I recover?

Depending on your case, you may be entitled to recover medical expenses, lost wages and future earning capacity, pain and suffering, and other related costs. In wrongful death cases, surviving family members may recover additional damages.

How long will my case take?

Every case is different. Some claims settle in a matter of months, while others that require litigation can take longer. We work efficiently while making sure your case is fully and fairly valued.

Do I have to go to court?

Most personal injury cases settle without a trial. However, we prepare every case as if it will go to trial, which puts us in the strongest possible position to negotiate a fair settlement.

Ride defensively

Most motorcycle collisions are caused by drivers who fail to see the rider. Assume you are invisible, especially at intersections and during left turns.

After a crash

Florida's no-fault PIP system does not extend to motorcycles the way it does to cars, which makes pursuing the at-fault driver essential. Document everything and speak with an attorney early.
