Our Arcadia auto accident attorney knows how difficult the recovery process can be.
Are You Entitled To Compensation? 

Under Florida law, those injured in a car crash can seek compensation for their injuries if they can show that their accident was caused as a direct result of the recklessness or negligence of another party.
Some examples of what recklessness or negligence could be in an Arcadia car crash include:
- Drunk driving
- Driving while high on drugs
- Speeding
- Distracted driving including texting while driving
- Failure to maintain a vehicle for safety
- Failure to obey all traffic laws
If your accident was caused by the other driver acting in any of these ways or in any other way that a reasonable person would recognize as negligent or reckless, you could be entitled to compensation through an Arcadia auto accident lawsuit.
What About PIP? 

It's true that PIP coverage is required of all Florida motorists. And PIP pays out settlements regardless of who is at fault, providing compensation directly to the policy holder. But the sad thing is that PIP is very rarely as effective as it should be. Consider the following:
- PIP only pays for 80% of your medical costs related to an accident
- PIP only covers 60% of your lost wages related to an accident
- Your claim must be filed within 14 days of your accident in order to pay. If you're seriously injured, it can be difficult to file your claim in some instances.
- Only certain medical experts can be used with PIP. For instance, you can't visit a chiropractor.
As you can see, PIP may not really help you make a full financial recover and could still leave you struggling. Because of this, filing an Arcadia auto accident lawsuit is something that you may need to do. And, as an insurance company, your PIP provider may actually try to avoid paying you out anything that you really deserve in an accident just to save themselves money. We fight for you, not the insurance companies, and we'll make sure that you aren't pushed aside and that you get the most from your case.
What Damages Are You Owed?

- Medical bills including future potential medical bills
- Lost wages including future estimated lost wages
