Seminole Car Accident sceneMore than three million people are injured and nearly 50,000 are killed in the United States every year in car accidents. If you drive or ride in a car, there is a near statistical certainty that you will be involved in a car accident at some time in your life. Car accidents can be devastating - sometimes deadly.

If you have been involved in a car accident, hopefully you've walked away free from harm. But even in the most minor of Florida car accidents, some degree of injury, such as whiplash
or minor cuts and bruises, can occur.

All too often though, head, neck, back injuries, as well as injury to internal organs and limbs happen. You may not even notice until you get to your destination because an “adrenaline rush” effect can happen immediately after a car accident which may mask your injuries. Yet unless you get immediate assistance to evaluate even hidden injuries, you are at risk of compromising your ability to make future claims. DeLoach, Hofstra & Cavonis will guide you through making the right legal decisions at this traumatic time.

Most Serious Car Accident Injuries Are Preventable

Alcohol is a contributing factor in about 40% of fatal traffic accidents. Drugs - both illegal and prescription - account for some others. Improper use of seatbelts contributes to more than 60% of fatalities. Distractions, such as cell phones, are an increasing cause of car accidents and resulting injuries. If you have been the victim of another person's poor driving decisions, aggressive legal representation by our attorneys will help you get justice.

What to Do Immediately After Your Car Accident

  1. Call the police so a formal report can be made.
  2. Get all available information from the drivers involved and all witnesses. This includes names, addresses and phone numbers, license plate numbers, the year, make and model of the vehicles involved, and insurance information. Don't assume the police officer writing the report will identify all the witnesses.
  3. Take pictures of the scene, the vehicles, and any visible injury you have. The camera on a mobile phone typically works great for this.
  4. Do not speak with anyone other than the Florida police officer investigating the accident about how the accident happened. Do not admit guilt or innocence on your part. Your statements to the police officer are not admissible in Court. However, your statements to others at the scene are.
  5. Seek the advice of a Florida car accident attorney.

Other Types of Vehicle Accidents We Handle

  • Truck Accidents. Because of their size, increased stopping distances and decreased maneuverability, trucks pose increased risks to motorists. Unfortunately, trucking accidents often result in severe injuries or death.
  • Pedestrian Accidents. Due to poor roadway design and inattentive drivers, many accidents occur, taking the lives of hundreds of thousands of Florida pedestrians each year.
  • DUI Accidents. All auto accidents are traumatic, but they are even more so when they involved a drunk driver.  Punitive damages may be recovered for all injured parties in DUI cases.
  • Motorcycle Accidents. Due to the beautiful weather in Florida, motorcycle riding is very popular. Unfortunately, that means that we have more than our fair share of motorcycle accidents.
  • ATV and Personal Watercraft Accidents. ATVs, boats, jet skis, side by sides, and other powersport vehicles are prevalent in Florida. Just because you weren't in a car doesn't mean you aren't eligible for compensation for your injuries.
