Car accidents are unpredictable and can have a devastating impact on everyone involved. No one ever imagines that they will be involved in an automobile accident that could change their life forever. However, each day, thousands of people are impacted by different kinds of car accidents.

While automobile manufacturers have been working to make their cars safer and to reduce the number of collisions due to product defect, car accidents and the injuries associated with them continue to exist in high numbers. Some of the most common causes of accidents, beyond product defect, are driving under the influence, distracted driving, and speeding.

Jonathan Friedland and Michael Carmona both also handle wrongful death claims that arise as a result of a car accident.
If you are ever involved in an automobile accident, you must seek medical attention immediately for any injuries you suffered. It is important that your injuries are documented and that you get the medical attention necessary to start the treatment process. This documentation is important because after a car accident, you will likely have to speak with numerous insurance companies, including your own insurance company and the other driver’s insurance company. You should contact an attorney before speaking to any insurance company because insurance companies, including your own, may encourage you to settle for much less money than you deserve. Insurance companies are interested in settling claims as quickly and as cheaply as possible. Oftentimes, this is at odds with your own interests. The insurance companies do not necessarily take into consideration the settlement that you are entitled to. Under Florida law, all drivers are required to carry Personal Injury Protection, also known as PIP, to cover any medical expenses that arise as a result of a car accident. Despite this requirement, most PIP insurance companies will take whatever steps necessary to avoid paying your medical expenses!
