Plantation Car Accident Lawyers
Top Rated Plantation Car Accident Lawyers Represent Clients Injured by Car Accidents Throughout Florida
The roads of South Florida are not only filled with sunshine and good vibrations, but these same roads are also filled with construction hazards, giant trucks, distracted drivers on cell phones, cars filled with teenagers texting, aggressive taxi’s, confused Uber drivers, and legions of lost tourists recklessly driving rentals. Under such conditions, it is no surprise that hundreds of car accidents and injuries happen every day. Experienced Plantation car accident lawyers can help with your car accident claims.
According to Florida’s car crash and injury statistics, in the first few weeks of 2019, there were 35,354 car accidents resulting in 216 deaths and 14,631 injuries. Without a doubt, driving in South Florida can be a risky daily activity. Not only is a car accident likely to happen, but it is simultaneously unexpected, unwelcome and devastating. From the moment an accident occurs, a car accident victim must make important decisions: Should I go to the hospital? When should I call my insurance company? What if I am seriously injured or can’t work? Will I get a rental car as part of my insurance claim? Is the tow truck covered? Is this settlement offer from the insurance company fair?

7 Important Things to do After a Car Accident
- STOP & STAY: All vehicles involved in an accident should remain in place unless they are interfering with traffic or causing a hazard. Never drive away or leave the scene of an accident, even if the accident is minor.
- CALL FOR HELP: Call 911 and wait for the police and/or ambulance. Always make an accident report with the police, because you will need the accident report or “incident” number as part of your accident insurance claim. More importantly, if you fail to alert the local or state police of a car crash in Florida within 10 days, you could be in violation of Florida Motor Vehicle Law.
- GET & GIVE INFORMATION: Get driver’s license & insurance information from all the other drivers and talk to officials at the scene. Get the name and phone number of any witnesses. Tell the police officer what happened and advise him if you [or a passenger] are injured. Calm yourself and think about any pain or discomfort and let the paramedics know about non-visible things like headaches, blurry vision, dizziness, stiffness, or inability to move.
- TAKE PICTURES: Whenever possible take pictures of the following: damage to your car; damage to the other vehicle(s); the ending position of the cars; point of contact; the scene of the accident; and any special conditions that caused the accident such as construction; missing or defective traffic control signs/signals, bad weather or lighting. You should also photograph any immediate injuries such as bumps, bruises, cuts, and scrapes.
- MAKE AN INSURANCE CLAIM: Florida is a “no-fault” car insurance state which means that you can file a claim with your own insurance called Personal Injury Protection “PIP” insurance coverage, no matter who is at fault for the accident. You should report the accident to your insurance company from the scene or as soon as possible after you leave the scene.
- GET MEDICAL TREATMENT: Always take advantage of emergency personnel and allow them to take you to the hospital if you feel any discomfort or pain. If not, you should seek medical attention as soon as possible. Florida Insurance Law requires a person who is injured in a car accident to seek medical attention within 14 days of the accident or his/her right to insurance coverage may be denied.
- HIRE A GOOD LAWYER: After taking these immediate steps, make sure you take the next step in the right direction, like contacting one of our experienced and well-respected Plantation car accident lawyers at Lawlor, White & Murphey to schedule a free consultation.
