What Does It Mean That Florida Is a No-Fault State?

You have probably heard before that Florida is a no-fault state. That means drivers first turn to their own insurance policies to compensate them for injuries and other losses after a crash, no matter who was to blame. However, the law is not as simple as it sounds, and negotiating with insurance companies can be extremely tricky. Here are some things to keep in mind:

• Just because you are filing a claim through your own insurance company, that does not mean the adjuster will offer you a fair settlement. In fact, your insurance company is likely to offer you a very low amount and pressure you to sign your rights away. Do not agree to anything without seeking advice from an attorney.
• A skilled lawyer will aggressively negotiate with your insurance company and identify additional options for pursuing compensation, such as uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage (UM or UIM).
• You may also be able to demand compensation from the at-fault driver, depending on the severity of your injuries.

Insurance companies have skilled legal teams working for them. You should, too. Let the experienced and knowledgeable car accident lawyers at Rosen & Ohr fight for justice for you and your family. Contact us now to schedule a free case consultation.

Causes of Car Accidents in Hollywood, FL

Part of building a strong car accident claim involves identifying what caused the crash. Many hazardous driving behaviors and road conditions contribute to accidents in South Florida, including:

• Driving above the posted speed limit
• Distracted driving caused by cell phones, passengers, infotainment systems, or other sources
• Failing to obey traffic laws, including right-of-way rules and turn signals
• Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs
• Running red lights or stop signs
• Driving while overly tired or fatigued
• Unfamiliarity with rental vehicles or local roads
• Poor weather or hazardous road conditions
• Elderly or seasonal drivers (“snowbirds”) who are not accustomed to South Florida traffic patterns
• Malfunctioning or faulty traffic lights
• Obstructed, damaged, or poorly placed traffic signs
• Electric scooter riders entering or obstructing traffic lanes

There are many more potential factors that can contribute to auto accidents. However, the most common cause is driver negligence. Far too many drivers are reckless, careless, and irresponsible behind the wheel. They frequently disregard others’ safety and their own by failing to pay attention to their surroundings and how they are driving. By throwing caution to the wind, these drivers show the type of negligence that can result in a collision that changes people’s lives forever.

Common Hollywood Car Accident Injuries

• Broken or fractured bones
• Whiplash and other soft-tissue injuries
• Burns from fires, hot surfaces, or airbag deployment
• Airbag and seatbelt-related injuries

• Cuts, lacerations, and bruising
• Head injuries and traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
• Back, neck, and spinal cord injuries (SCI)
• Joint injuries to the wrists, elbows, knees, and shoulders

Auto accident injuries can severely disrupt your life, impacting your ability to work, support your family, and manage everyday expenses or medical bills. They can also strain relationships with loved ones and limit your ability to enjoy the activities that once brought you fulfillment.

Even if you feel fine right after the crash, seeking medical attention immediately is essential. Many serious conditions such as whiplash, internal bleeding, or soft tissue injuries may not produce symptoms right away. When left untreated, these hidden injuries can lead to long-term complications and even life-threatening consequences.
