Steps to Take After an Accident in West Palm Beach
- Seek medical attention immediately, even if you think injuries are minor. Hospitals like St. Mary’s or Good Samaritan Medical Center provide crucial records for your case. After a car crash, you generally need initial medical care within 14 days to use your PIP (Personal Injury Protection) benefits.
- Document the scene: Take photos, collect witness information, and save any physical evidence.
- Call a lawyer: Speak with a West Palm Beach personal injury attorney before giving statements to insurance companies.
Florida’s Comparative Fault Rule
Florida uses a comparative negligence system. For most negligence cases filed on or after March 24, 2023, your compensation is reduced by your percentage of fault, and if you are found more than 50% at fault you cannot recover damages. Medical malpractice claims are an exception to that 50% rule. For example, if you’re found 20% at fault in a car crash, you may still recover 80% of your damages. A West Palm Beach personal injury attorney can push back when an insurance company tries to raise your share of the blame.
Statute of Limitations in Florida
For accidents on or after March 24, 2023, Florida law generally gives you two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. Wrongful death claims are generally two years from the date of death. Missing the deadline can permanently bar your case, so it’s important to contact a personal injury lawyer in West Palm Beach as soon as possible.
Compensation for Injury Victims in West Palm Beach
Depending on your case, you may be entitled to recover:
- Medical expenses (past and future)
- Lost wages and reduced earning capacity
- Pain and suffering
- Property damage
