Boca Raton sits at the convergence of I-95, Florida's Turnpike, and Glades Road, making it one of Palm Beach County's highest-traffic corridors. Crashes involving cars, motorcycles, and commercial trucks on these roads cause serious injuries every day, and Florida's no-fault insurance system adds complexity to every claim.

Boca Raton courts, deadlines & Florida rules

Florida operates under a PIP/no-fault system (Fla. Stat. 627.736). To pursue a claim against the at-fault driver you must meet the permanent-injury threshold: a significant and permanent loss of an important bodily function, permanent injury within a reasonable degree of medical probability, significant and permanent scarring or disfigurement, or death. Under HB 837, the negligence statute of limitations is two years. For trucking cases involving commercial carriers, federal preservation-of-evidence obligations also apply, making early legal action essential.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

My PIP paid my medical bills. Do I still have a case against the other driver?
Possibly. PIP covers limited medical and wage benefits regardless of fault, but if your injuries meet Florida's permanent-injury threshold, you can bring a tort claim against the at-fault driver for pain and suffering, excess medical costs, and other damages not covered by PIP.
The trucking company is pressuring me to settle quickly. Should I accept?
No. Early settlement offers from commercial carriers are typically far below the actual value of a serious injury claim. Our Boca Raton attorneys can send a preservation letter, secure black-box data, and assess the full value of your claim before any negotiations.
How soon after a Boca Raton crash must I see a doctor to protect my PIP benefits?
Florida law requires you to seek initial emergency treatment within 14 days of the accident to receive the full PIP benefit. Delays beyond that window can reduce your available benefits significantly.
