Jupiter Car Accident Lawyer

If you have been the victim of a negligent driver in Jupiter, Florida, the seasoned and successful Jupiter car accident attorney at Fetterman & Associates, PA can help ensure that you receive every benefit of the law. If your injuries are covered under Florida’s no-fault insurance laws, then the expenses associated with your accident will be paid by your auto insurance, or by the person at fault if you do not have insurance. That is, you will be covered as long as you seek medical attention within 14 days of the accident. Failure to do so can result in loss of your insurance benefits. But what if you believe your injuries warrant a civil wreck lawsuit? How can you determine if you have the right to file a civil lawsuit against a negligent driver in Florida, and, if you can do such, how can you give yourself the best possible chance of winning your suit?

How a Jupiter Car Accident Attorney Will Help You

An experienced Jupiter car accident attorney is familiar with Florida laws and can provide necessary legal guidance.

After you have sought medical attention and been evaluated, you’ll begin to understand the extent of your injuries. If they appear to be serious enough, you may start to believe that you should pursue a civil lawsuit. How do you know if that is the right course? The best thing for you to do is to set up a free, no obligation consultation with an experienced and knowledgeable car accident lawyer Jupiter, such as one of those at Fetterman & Associates, PA, who have been successfully serving personal injury clients in the Jupiter, Florida, area for years. A lawyer from our offices, who understands every aspect of Florida’s no-fault insurance system, will be able to answer your questions and determine whether you have a case or not. If your attorney does believe that you have grounds for a lawsuit, he/she will be able to facilitate and implement the next steps in the legal process.

Some Determining Factors

There are a few factors that your lawyer will utilize to determine if you do have grounds for a lawsuit. In the state, personal injury protection (PIP) insurance is supposed to be carried by every driver. The minimum amount of insurance is $10,000, as this is the limit that Florida has put on benefits for those who are injured in a car accident.

Also, unless its been determined that the accident , crash resulted in the victim being in an emergency medical situation, the limit for compensation is $2,500. These limitations were put into place in order to negate people’s tendencies to file what would often be, in essence, frivolous suits. One question that needs to be answered for and by anyone considering a personal injury suit is do their injuries necessitate legal action or are they adequately covered by one’s insurance? Under Florida’s personal injury law, a victim must sustain serious injury in order to sue in civil court.

FAQs and Resources:

Although what constitutes a serious injury is open to interpretation, and the best way to determine if you do have grounds for a lawsuit is to meet with an attorney who knows and understands Florida’s no-fault system, the basic guidelines for such define these injuries as being permanent and inhibiting ones mobility and/or ability to perform job duties or daily functions.

Injuries that cause paralysis, loss of a limb, or other similar serious problems or conditions would be worthy of a lawsuit. Also, those who suffer permanent disfigurement or scarring would be candidates for such a suit. Finally, a car accident that results in the death of a victim might lead to a wrongful death claim by the victim’s relatives.

Thank you for the best “first accident case” I’ve ever had… I was referred to Fetterman and Associates by a coworker from a previous job I had. Once my car was totaled out, I contacted them. Not only were they friendly and understanding - they took over the whole process which helped me. I was stressed and panicking about it all and thankfully, I didn’t have to worry as the process began. I had no idea what I was doing or going to do. I am glad I chose them because everything was a breeze for me. They are kind, respectful, responsive and great to work with!
