It is beneficial to hire our Delray Beach attorneys soon after your car accident. The attorney will help document the evidence needed to win your case, some of which may be lost or destroyed if not obtained in time. The attorney will also make sure your rights are protected and protect you from volunteering any information that can be used against you later in the case.
Contact needs to be made with your liability insurance, your health insurance, the at-fault party’s liability insurance. Each of these insurance carriers will have lots of questions for you. Let an experienced party help you navigate this process and insure your claim is organized from the get-go.
Florida law requires every car owner to purchase $10,000.00 of Personal Injury Protection Insurance (“PIP”). After a motor vehicle crash, REGARDLESS OF FAULT, each party goes through their own PIP insurance carrier to pay for their own medical bills. Once the PIP insurance is exhausted, the injured party may utilize their health insurance if they require further care. If the injured party has no health insurance, some doctors will agree to treat the injured party and delay collecting payment until the resolution of their claim. At the conclusion of the medical treatment, the at-fault driver will be responsible to compensate the injured party for any out of pocket expenses, co-payments, or outstanding medical bills reasonably incurred as a result of the car accident.
It is very helpful to photograph and video the auto accident scene as soon as possible. Next, it is important to get the name and contact information of any witnesses. The incident should be reported to local authorities and a report should be generated. It is also helpful to obtain insurance information from all parties involved in the incident. All of this information can be used to help establish your case and should be brought in for our Delray Beach personal injury attorneys to review during your initial consultation. If you were unable to obtain any of this documentation, our attorneys should be able to assist.
People, property owners, and companies who cause harm to another person are liable for providing fair compensation. Unfortunately, collecting these payments is not always easy.
