South Florida is an area that is no stranger to construction. From new high rises downtown to new onramps for the Florida Turnpike or I-95, Fort Lauderdale seems to be a city that is always under construction. With this, drivers most become accustomed to maneuvering around roadblocks and reducing their speed when approaching live construction sites. Not only can one be ticketed for violating road rules protecting construction site workers, but a damaging accident is also likely to occur as a result of negligent driving.
The most important thing to do after an accident is to check on the wellbeing of everyone involved. If an ambulance is necessary, dial 911 and request one. Collect as much information as possible as you wait for them to arrive. Take pictures of vehicular damages, the scene of the accident, and any injuries you may have suffered. You should also exchange information with anyone else who was involved in the collision. If possible, locate witnesses and jot down their information as well as their accounts of the incident may be crucial.
Florida’s no-fault laws require those injured in car accidents to go through their personal injury protection to cover medical bills. However, those who’ve sustained serious injuries can legally pursue a lawsuit for damages and the personal injury lawyers at Salpeter Gitkin, LLP are here to help you do just that.
It can be seemingly impossible to recover accurate compensation for injuries when you lack legal backing. Insurance companies thrive off of settling suits for as little as possible which can leave you with unpaid bills and injuries to tend to. We can use our experience in personal injury law to implement proven effective negotiation strategies to help ensure that the liable party pays you what you’re entitled to by law.
