Our Lake Butler auto accident lawyers can help you receive maximum compensation for your medical expenses, pain and suffering, property damage, and more.

Traffic Collisions in Florida are a Leading Cause of Injury and Death

Due to our state’s high speed limits, large surface streets, lack of enforcement, and lack of public transportation—which leads to more drivers congesting the roads—Florida ranks as one of the most dangerous states to drive, walk, or ride a bike. It also does not help that 29 percent of Florida’s major roads are in poor or mediocre condition, according to TRIP.  However, bad drivers are the ones who are truly at fault for the vast majority of collisions. Distracted driving, aggressive driving, and drunk driving are top causes of injuries and deaths on Florida roadways, and these negligent drivers must be held accountable for their reprehensible decisions.

Damages in a Lake Butler Auto Accident Claim

Being in a traffic collision is expensive. The median cost of hospital admission for a nonfatal injury in Florida is just under $43,000, according to the Florida Department of Health. In addition to hospital bills, you also need to take into consideration the lost wages you will suffer while you are recovering from your injuries, lost earning capacity due to potential disability, pain and suffering, property damage, and more.

  • Medical expenses;
  • Projected medical costs;
  • Rehabilitation;
  • Lost wages and lost earning ability;
  • Pain and suffering;
  • Emotional distress;
  • Loss of joy of life;
  • Loss of consortium in wrongful death claims;
  • Property damage; and
  • More.

Why an Experienced Attorney is Necessary in all Auto Collision Cases For Fair Compensation

Negligent drivers, as well as their insurance companies, will do everything in their power to deny fault. Their insurance companies will not only deny that their client caused the crash, but go so far as to blame you, and argue that your injuries and damages are less than what you say they are. Because of the ruthless tactics insurers use against injured victims such as yourself, you need legal representation in order to be fairly compensated.
