Florida is one of the most dangerous states for people on foot and on bikes. When a vehicle hits a person, there is nothing to absorb the impact, so injuries are often severe even at lower speeds. If that happened to you in or around Fort Myers, Lee County, a free review can help you understand your options before you talk to an insurance company.
What Matters in a Fort Myers Pedestrian Accident Claim
Severe injury risk
Head injuries, fractures, and internal injuries are common because there is no protection from the impact.
Your own PIP may help
In Florida, your own auto insurance can sometimes apply even when you were walking or biking.
Right-of-way facts
Where the crash happened and who had the right of way are details insurers fight over.
Where Fort Myers Crashes Happen
Serious Fort Myers crashes tend to happen on I-75, US-41 (Cleveland Avenue), Colonial Boulevard, Daniels Parkway, and McGregor Boulevard. US-41 through the middle of town is a long run of signals and driveways where rear-end and turning crashes are common.
After a Serious Fort Myers Crash
People badly hurt in a Fort Myers crash are often taken to Lee Memorial Hospital, the region's trauma center, with others treated at HealthPark Medical Center or Gulf Coast Medical Center. The records from those first days are part of what a claim relies on later.
Handling a Fort Myers Injury Claim
A Fort Myers injury claim generally falls under Lee County and Florida's Twentieth Judicial Circuit. You do not need to file anything to start. A free review simply looks at what happened, the care you have had, and your options.
Florida Deadlines Can Apply
Florida sets time limits on injury claims. Under Florida Statutes § 95.11, many negligence claims have a limitations period (commonly two years for negligence), but the exact deadline depends on your case. Evidence from a Fort Myers pedestrian accident can disappear quickly, so it is best not to wait to get a review.
