Fort Lauderdale Car Accident Lawyer

Have you been involved in a Ft. Lauderdale car crash?

Car accidents are the most common cause of personal injury claims. Every year, thousands of Floridians across the state are injured in traffic accidents as the result of the negligence or carelessness of others. These accidents can cause all kinds of devastating consequences, such as whiplash, broken bones, sprains, internal injuries, head trauma, loss of limbs, and damage to the neck, back, and spinal cord.

Those injured may face days or weeks in the hospital, multiple surgeries, and extensive rehabilitation. In the worst cases, they may be disabled for life, unable to perform routine daily tasks and requiring personal assistance or nursing care. All of this comes at a staggering cost. This coupled with an inability to work, may cause the individuals affected to be facing financial ruin. If you have been a victim, do not hesitate to get in touch with a Fort Lauderdale car accident attorney as soon as possible, to protect your rights and pursue restitution.

Areas of Practice

At Feingold & Posner, P.A. we are driven to succeed and help you walk away with positive case results. Working personally with each of our clients, you can feel secure placing your case in our attorneys' capable hands. With over a decade of legal experience backing up their knowledge and counsel, take a look at some of the practice areas that they can assist you with:

  • Aggressive Driving: Those that take to the road at unsafe speeds, cut off other drivers and are completely unaware of others while driving can qualify as aggressive drivers. Their actions can often endanger the lives of the other drivers around them, making them liable if they cause injury to another person. Talk to an attorney if you have been a victim of this type of incident.
  • Auto Product Liability: Oftentimes, car companies are the ones that should be held responsible for car collisions. If the manufacturer installed a faulty part, did not adequately check to make certain the car was running properly or simply ignored a major error, they may be liable for paying damages. Some of the most common problem parts include steering wheel issues, brakes, and tires.
  • Car Accident Injuries: Ranging from catastrophic injuries to minor scrapes, nearly anything is possible when it comes to vehicular collisions. Some of the most common include whiplash, back injuries, fractures and in more severe cases, spinal cord damage. Always seek medical attention first and then get in touch with a qualified lawyer to help protect your rights and get compensation.
  • Car Accident Insurance Claim: Many insurance companies may try to eliminate the need for them to pay for a legitimate claim. Using different tactics they will try to protect themselves from having to give out more than they have to. This can often come in the form of insurance bad faith and it must be fought against with the proper legal representation.
  • Causes of Car Accidents: Whether a driver is distracted by their cell phone, eating and grooming, or they simply are driving recklessly they can easily be at fault for horrific accidents. Drunk drivers have absolutely no excuse if they are at the root of causing an incident resulting in injury. Simple oversights and mistakes may even lead to collisions, but it is essential that you obtain a competent Fort Lauderdale car accident attorney to help investigate your case and determine the guilty party.
  • Distracted Driver Accidents: Responsible for nearly 20% of all car accident injuries for the year 2010, distracted driving is an ever increasing problem. Drivers find themselves invincible while on the road as they continue to use their phones, smoke, drink, eat and groom themselves while driving. While some of these activities may not be the major cause for drastic accidents, texting is probably the most common offense. You should never have to pay for injuries caused by a driver that is being negligent.
  • Driving While Texting: Considered to be just as debilitating as driving drunk, those that choose to text or use their phones while driving are putting not only themselves but others at risk. The average time it takes to send a text is 4.5 seconds, which is long enough for a car to travel across a football field at 55mph. If you or a loved one have been at the brunt of a car accident that you believe was caused by another driver's negligent actions, contact us immediately.
  • Drunk Driving Accidents: Drivers that take to the street after a few drinks may not think of themselves as inebriated, but yet they are a leading cause of car related fatalities in the U.S. Do not let the reckless individuals at fault in an alcohol-related accident walk away clean, but pursue the financial restitution that you deserve by contacting our firm.
  • Liability in a Car Accident: Determining liability can be tricky if there were no witnesses or evidence to point to the cause of the accident. Allowing a knowledgeable attorney to thoroughly investigate every aspect of your case may significantly increase your chances of obtaining compensation.
  • Personal Injury Protection: Under Florida State law, every driver on the road must have personal injury protection (PIP) specifically for car accident injuries. It has benefits such as receiving a minimum of $10,000 in coverage and another $10,000 for any damage done to your property. Always speak with a knowledgeable attorney after filing an insurance claim and receive pertinent legal assistance as soon as possible.
  • Types of Car Accidents: Motor vehicles can collide in a number of different ways depending on various outside factors. Speeding, distracted driving, reckless behavior, disobeying traffic laws, bad weather and poor road signs can all contribute to accidents. These aspects can cause T-Bone accidents, multi-vehicle collisions and rollovers as well as many others.
  • Underinsured Motorist Claims: Those that choose to opt for cheaper insurance plans and driver around underinsured may actually be placing themselves in a vulnerable spot. They may be sued to help pay for damages for the victim and their family. If you have been involved in an accident with an underinsured motorist, please do not hesitate to get the help you need to pursue maximum compensation. Never assume that just because they are underinsured that they cannot pay for restitution.
  • Uninsured Motorist Claims: Florida is ranked as the 5th highest state with their number of insured drivers on the road, despite the fact that the law specifically requires every driver to have personal injury protection. It is important for those that have been in an accident with an uninsured motorist to realize that they have the legal right to seek out financial damages despite the fact that the guilty party does not have insurance.
