Yes. Florida law does not require adults over 16 to wear helmets, and not wearing one doesn’t automatically prevent you from recovering compensation. However, the insurance company may try to use it against you—our attorneys know how to push back and focus the case on the driver’s negligence.
Florida follows a modified comparative fault rule. As long as you were less than 50% at fault, you can still recover compensation. We’ll investigate the crash to prove liability and minimize any unfair blame.
You may be entitled to medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and compensation for long-term effects of your injuries. In fatal cases, surviving family members may pursue a wrongful death claim.
Florida law generally gives you two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit—but the sooner we start gathering evidence, the stronger your case will be.
Yes, if your child was injured in a bicycle accident, a lawyer can absolutely assist you. Our attorneys can guide you through the process of making a claim on behalf of your minor child, helping to secure their present and future well-being.
