That sounds like a terrifying experience. I hope you're okay. If you were involved in a car accident in Florida, it's important to document everything, seek medical attention if needed, and report the incident to the authorities. Florida follows a no-fault insurance system, meaning your own insurance typically covers medical expenses regardless of fault. However, if the other driver was negligent, you may be able to pursue additional compensation.
If you need legal guidance, you might consider consulting a personal injury attorney.
Dear D K,
A Personal Injury attorney can investigate this matter and determine all possible insurance coverage including any available 1st party coverage. It appears you have a potential case against the driver and owner of the vehicle and potential PIP & UM/UIM if such coverage is available. Possibly, there are issues including outstanding medical bills, which we typically negotiate for our clients. You should consult a Personal Injury attorney to avoid potential pitfalls rather than pursuing the matter on your own. Choose an experienced professional for guidance and advice before going further. We give free consultations and if we take the case, it would be on a contingent fee basis. However, you will have to reach out, as attorneys are unable to directly solicit.
