Fort Lauderdale Personal Injury Lawyer
Fighting for the Compensation You Deserve
Broward County sees over 100 accidents every single day. When a negligent driver, property owner, or corporation injures you, Shiner Law Group's Fort Lauderdale personal injury attorneys fight to recover every dollar you're owed — medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and more.
Time-Sensitive — 2-Year Deadline
Florida's statute of limitations gives you just 2 years to file. Evidence disappears, witnesses forget, and insurance companies get the advantage the longer you wait.
Don't Speak to Insurance First
Adjusters work for the other side. A single recorded statement can drastically reduce or eliminate your claim. Let our attorneys handle all communications.
Preserve Evidence Now
Surveillance footage gets deleted, skid marks fade, and vehicles get repaired. Contacting an attorney immediately protects the evidence that builds your case.
Why Broward County Is One of Florida's Most Dangerous Places to Drive
Fort Lauderdale is part of one of the two most accident-prone counties in Florida. According to the Florida Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FLHSMV), Broward County recorded 36,871 crashes in 2025 — an average of more than 101 accidents every single day — resulting in 210 fatalities and thousands of serious injuries.
The combination of heavy tourist traffic, year-round warm weather, congested highways, and Florida's no-fault insurance system creates a perfect storm for accident victims. Fort Lauderdale holds the alarming distinction of being the second most dangerous city in the United States for pedestrians, and nearly 30% of all crashes are hit-and-runs — leaving victims without immediate help or a clear path to compensation.
If you were injured on any of Fort Lauderdale's roads, you have rights — and Shiner Law Group knows how to enforce them. Our attorneys understand Broward County courts, local insurance tactics, and how to maximize your recovery.

Who Can File a Personal Injury Claim in Fort Lauderdale?
If you were injured due to someone else's negligence — a driver, property owner, employer, or company — you likely have the right to pursue compensation. You do not need to prove 100% fault; Florida's comparative negligence rules allow you to recover even if you were partially at fault.
- You were injured in a car, truck, or motorcycle accident in Broward County
- You were injured as a pedestrian, cyclist, or passenger
- You slipped, tripped, or fell on someone else's property
- You were injured by a defective product
- You were a victim of a hit-and-run (uninsured motorist coverage may apply)
- Your injuries meet Florida's serious injury threshold to step outside no-fault
- A family member was killed due to negligence (wrongful death claim)
What Damages Can You Recover?
Florida law allows injury victims to pursue both economic and non-economic damages. Here are the types of compensation you may be entitled to:
Medical Expenses
Past and future hospital bills, surgeries, rehab, physical therapy, and medication
Lost Wages
Income lost during recovery and reduced future earning capacity
Pain & Suffering
Physical pain, emotional distress, anxiety, and mental anguish
