Florida Car Accident Lawyers

Injured in a Crash? We Can Help!

Almost everyone has a scary story about a car accident or a near-miss—including attorneys! Here’s something that happened to our very own Carmen Dellutri just recently:

“I was sitting at my desk working when Attorney David Fineman told me he was taking his car in for service, and he asked me to follow him and bring him back to the office. ‘Sure, no problem, I’ll be right behind you.’ At least, that’s what I thought. I was driving southbound in the left lane of a three-lane road, with no one in front of me. Then, out of nowhere, a car came from a side road on my right and tried to cut across three lanes of traffic to make a U-turn. I drive a big, black pick-up truck—there’s no way she couldn’t see me. As her car zoomed from out of my blind spot, I slammed on my brakes as quickly as I could, but it was too late. CRASH! As if this wasn’t enough, her insurance company tried to blame me for the accident: BAD IDEA.”

We hear stories like this every day. There you were, minding your own business, safely cruising down U.S. 41, I-75, I-4, or any number of other local roads, just trying to get from point A to point B. And then, all of a sudden, BAM! Out of nowhere, your car spins out of control and it feels like your whole world has been rocked. Or, you were sitting at a red light, rocking along to Bon Jovi, Jason Aldean, or Talk Radio while you wait for the green light, and you’re rear-ended by a careless “multitasker” who’s texting while driving. Even worse, you’re hit by one of the countless irresponsible drunk drivers who turn their cars into weapons of mass destruction, with total disregard for their own lives and the lives of everyone on the road.

We could go on, but we think you get the point. Now, you may see why we aggressively go after drunk and distracted drivers. You know as well as we do that Florida highways are dangerous, and they get worse each and every year. We like to think (and sometimes even joke) that the snowbirds are the real problem causing all the traffic and accidents. But, let’s be honest for a minute, even out-of-season, we have a ridiculous number of distracted drivers on our roads at any given time. We see them driving, cell phone in hand as if it is glued to their fingers, just waiting for that all-important text.

Chances are pretty good that, at some point in time in your life, you (or a loved one) will be involved in an automobile accident with a distracted driver. If you are here reading these words on this very page, you or a loved one has already been involved in a vehicle collision. If so, we are truly sorry that we have to meet like this, and we hope you’re okay. We know all too well that being involved in a car accident can be a very traumatic experience that can turn your whole world upside-down.

When Should I Hire an Attorney After a Car Accident?

The insurance company will begin working on your claim immediately after the accident takes place. When the person they are insuring seems to be liable, they will undoubtedly try to shift the blame to the other driver to minimize the payout. It is essential, therefore, that you speak with an attorney as soon as possible after the accident.

If you are unsure of whether you should hire an attorney to represent you, here are some scenarios in which you absolutely need to reach out to an attorney at once:

• You suffered injuries or substantial vehicle damage
• Another party’s actions contributed to your injuries
• You suffered injuries that are severe and permanent
• The accident was fatal
