Fort Lauderdale Personal Injury Lawyer

Cases We Handle

The Florida Law Group represents victims of serious accidents across Broward County and South Florida. 

Our team has the experience and resources to take on negligent drivers, property owners, and corporations in cases involving:

• Car Accidents — Collisions are common on I-95, Florida’s Turnpike, and local roads like Broward Boulevard and US-1. We handle cases involving distracted driving, drunk driving, speeding, uninsured motorists, and Uber or Lyft crashes.
• Truck Accidents — Commercial vehicles on I-595 and I-75 cause devastating injuries when drivers or carriers cut corners on safety. We pursue companies and insurers for violations involving fatigue, cargo errors, or maintenance failures.
• Motorcycle Accidents — Florida’s year-round riding weather also means a higher risk of motorcycle crashes. We represent riders injured by careless motorists who fail to yield, make unsafe lane changes, or ignore visibility rules.
• Bicycle Accidents — Cyclists in areas like Las Olas, Downtown Fort Lauderdale, and A1A face constant hazards from distracted drivers. We handle cases involving intersection collisions, dooring incidents, and negligent motorists.
• Pedestrian Accidents — From busy crosswalks on Sunrise Boulevard to residential neighborhoods, pedestrians are at risk when drivers speed, text, or fail to stop. We fight to hold reckless drivers accountable.
• Bus Accidents — We represent passengers and pedestrians injured in collisions involving Broward County Transit (BCT) or other public and private transportation providers.
• Premises Accidents — Property owners across Broward County must maintain safe environments. We handle slip-and-fall, trip-and-fall, and negligent security claims involving unsafe stores, apartment complexes, and public spaces.

How Florida’s Personal Injury Laws Protect Victims

Florida’s personal injury laws are designed to ensure that victims are not left to bear the cost of someone else’s negligence. To succeed in a claim, you must establish:

• Duty of care – The defendant had a responsibility to act safely.
• Breach of duty – That responsibility was not met.
• Causation – The breach directly caused harm.
• Damages – You suffered measurable physical, emotional, or financial loss.

Our attorneys build strong cases through investigation, expert testimony, and evidence analysis, connecting each element of negligence to the damages you sustained. Whether the defendant is a reckless driver or a major corporation, we have the experience and trial skills to hold them accountable.

Understanding Compensation in Florida Injury Cases

The goal of a personal injury case is to restore victims to the position they would have been in had the injury not occurred. Florida law allows recovery for:

• Economic damages – Medical expenses, rehabilitation, lost income, and reduced earning capacity.
• Non-economic damages – Pain and suffering, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life.
• Wrongful death damages – Funeral expenses, loss of companionship, and loss of financial support.
• Punitive damages – Awarded in cases of egregious or intentional misconduct to punish wrongdoers.

Our Fort Lauderdale personal injury attorneys calculate both short-term and long-term losses, working to ensure every client receives the maximum compensation possible.
