Between heavy traffic and reckless drivers, Miami-Dade County sees more than 60K collisions reported every year resulting in more than 300 fatalities. For many car accident victims, the aftermath of a collision may be only a scratch, shock, and upset. Some of the common minor injuries victims may suffer after a crash are whiplash, abrasions, lacerations, and contusions.
Our Miami car accident attorney can help you even if you suffered a minor injury caused by a car accident. On the other hand, motor vehicle accidents also have the potential to cause catastrophic injuries, that affect the brain or spine or that result in life-changing effects.

Under Florida law, if you have suffered injuries in a car accident you may be eligible to seek compensation for the full cost of your injury. Some of the most common damages from car crashes include:
Injuries caused by a vehicle's crashworthiness are considered and compensated apart from the injuries that were caused by the accident itself. The distinction can be a little difficult, especially when it comes to medical proof of the extent of an enhanced injury beyond the "expected" injury.
Let’s say a person travels at high speed, on our Florida highways, and is involved in a collision with another car operated by a drunk driver. In this case, the court might find that the first driver is 40% at fault for the accident, while the second driver bears 60% of the blame. In this case, the first driver can recover 60% of his damages, while the second driver can recover 40% from insurance companies, depending on the type of insurance they both have.
We also determine whether a defective product caused the accident, or if a defective product that’s part of the car had a role in causing your accident and subsequent injuries.
We work with car accident reconstructionists and we run our own investigations to find out exactly what happened and what was the cause of the car accident and your injuries. Most car accident lawyers in Miami look only at the liability that falls on the driver. A car component is rarely investigated for the crash. We do all that and we are committed to helping you recover fair compensation from car insurance and health insurance companies that will always try and give you less than what you and your family deserve.
It’s important to be cautious and to know how to act in case you are involved in a car accident on our roads in Florida. The usual course of action after a car crash involves collecting evidence, filling in the necessary paperwork, and dealing with insurance companies.
