Answers To Frequently Asked Questions About Car Accidents
Below, I’ve provided answers to some questions you may have after a car accident in Florida:
What does Florida’s comparative negligence law mean for my car accident claim?
The legal concept of comparative negligence refers to shared fault for an accident. If you are partly responsible for the accident, your compensation might be reduced by the percentage of fault assigned to you by a judge or jury.
A “tort reform” package of laws enacted in 2023 changed how comparative negligence operates in Florida. Ours is now a “modified comparative negligence” state, meaning that a person is barred from recovering any financial damages if they are 50% or more at fault for the accident. The previous law did not have the 50% threshold.
How long after a car accident can I file a lawsuit/claim in Florida?
The same tort reform package mentioned above also changed Florida’s statute of limitations (SOL). Prior to March 2023, car accident victims generally had four years from the date of the crash to file a personal injury lawsuit. Currently, the SOL is just two years. This is one of many reasons why it is important to consult an attorney as soon as reasonably possible.
What damages might I expect to receive for my car accident injury case?
After a car accident, you may be eligible for several types of “damages.” This term refers to the money owed for the harm suffered. Your available damages may include compensation for:
- Medical expenses
- Lost wages
- Pain and suffering
- Property damage
The exact amount and types of damages will depend on the specifics of your case, such as the severity of your injuries and the impact on your daily life. The type and amount of compensation will also depend on whether your case meets the serious injury threshold that would allow you to pursue a personal injury claim rather than being limited to personal injury protection (PIP) benefits.
