After a head-on collision, your top priorities are safety and evidence. Call 911 immediately for medical help, even if injuries seem minor, as shock can mask symptoms. Request police assistance to document the crash. Once safe, take photos and exchange insurance information, but avoid discussing fault. If possible, gather witness contact details. Notify your insurer right away. Then, contact a qualified personal injury attorney familiar with Brevard County. Douglas R. Beam brings over 37 years of trial and local knowledge, maximizing outcomes for injured victims across Melbourne and Brevard County. Early legal guidance preserves evidence and strengthens your case for medical and financial recovery.
Florida’s no-fault system means your Personal Injury Protection (PIP) pays up to $10,000 in medical expenses regardless of fault. For serious injuries exceeding that amount, you may pursue claims against the at-fault driver’s insurance. However, if the other driver is uninsured or underinsured, additional recovery can be complex. An experienced attorney can help identify all coverage options, including your own uninsured/underinsured motorist policy or potential third-party liability claims. With over $1 billion recovered for clients, our team routinely coordinates benefits so you aren’t left paying out-of-pocket for injuries caused by another’s negligence.
In Florida, you have two years from the accident date to file a personal injury lawsuit due to the 2023 reduction in the statute of limitations. Insurance claims, especially for PIP, must be filed promptly (within 14 days to preserve medical coverage). Missing these deadlines means losing your right to compensation. Evidence, like surveillance footage and eyewitness memories, fades quickly, so acting fast maximizes your chances. Our firm’s award-winning team uses rigorous investigation protocols to ensure deadlines are not missed and your claim is as strong as possible from the outset.
If the at-fault driver is uninsured, you may file a claim under your own uninsured/underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) coverage. A seasoned attorney can also help identify other potential liable parties or sources of recovery.
