Can I Sue for Damages from an Orlando Car Accident Injury?

If a careless driver caused or partially caused the car accident in which you were injured, you may be eligible under Florida law to sue for compensation. Liability in Florida accident injury cases is based on the concept of negligence, meaning that in order to sue someone for damages related to your car accident injuries, you have to be able to demonstrate the four elements of negligence:

  • The other driver owed you a duty of care.
  • The driver breached this duty of care.
  • The breach of duty resulted in your being seriously injured.
  • Because of the harm resulting from the driver’s breach of duty, you suffered damages.

Florida uses a system of comparative fault, so even if you were partially at fault for the accident, you can still recover damages; however, your compensation will be reduced based on your percentage of fault.

The experienced Orlando car accident injury attorneys at Malik Law will thoroughly investigate your accident and collect the evidence needed to clearly identify the at-fault party, prove the four elements of negligence, and help you obtain the maximum compensation for the damages you have suffered and may continue to suffer.

How Does the Florida No Fault Law Affect Car Accident Injury Lawsuits?

All Florida drivers must carry personal injury protection (PIP) insurance to cover their own accident-related injuries. However, the maximum PIP insurance pays is only $10,000 for accident-related injuries, so it is often not enough to cover medical expenses. Also, PIP insurance does not cover non-economic damages such as pain and suffering.

Fortunately, the Florida Motor Vehicle No-Fault Law allows accident victims who are seriously injured to sue negligent, at-fault drivers for fair compensation. According to the law, serious injuries are permanent, cause disfigurement or scarring, or cause the loss of important bodily functions. Types of injuries that could be considered serious include:

  • Neck and back injuries: Permanent damage to spinal discs can worsen over time and require long-term care or surgery.
  • Burns: Fires or explosions in accidents can cause serious scarring, disfigurement, or loss of function.
  • Broken bones: Fractures can result in surgeries, long recovery times, and chronic health issues.
  • Spinal cord injuries: May lead to permanent disability or paralysis.
  • Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs): TBIs can cause lifelong cognitive or physical impairments.
  • Lost limbs: Severe injuries may result in amputations and permanent disability.

If you or a family member were seriously injured in a car accident, suing for damages may be necessary to secure compensation for medical expenses, lost income, pain, suffering, and more. Remember, our expert legal services are all FREE until we win your case.

How Much Compensation Can I Get for My Car Accident Injuries?

The amount of compensation you can receive depends on many factors including your injuries, treatment needs, emotional trauma, and financial impact. In general, accident victims may be entitled to both economic and non-economic damages, including:

  • Medical expenses and treatments
  • Physical pain and suffering
  • Disfigurement, scarring, or permanent impairment
  • Mental and emotional anguish
  • Diminished quality of life
  • Property damage
  • Lost income or reduced future earning potential
  • Loss of companionship and support for family members
