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 Miami, Miami-Dade County, a free review can help you understand your options before you talk to an insurance company.
What Matters in a Miami 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 Miami Crashes Happen
The crashes that turn serious in Miami tend to happen on the expressways: I-95, the Dolphin (SR-836), the Palmetto (SR-826), and the causeways like I-395 out to the beach. US-1 through Brickell and the southern suburbs stays packed, and rideshare and delivery drivers add to the mix at all hours.
After a Serious Miami Crash
Seriously injured crash victims across Miami-Dade are often taken to the Ryder Trauma Center at Jackson Memorial Hospital, one of the busiest Level I trauma centers in the country. The care you get in those first hours and days becomes part of the record your claim depends on.
Handling a Miami Injury Claim
A Miami injury claim generally falls under Miami-Dade County and Florida's Eleventh Judicial Circuit. Starting a free review does not commit you to anything and does not create an attorney-client relationship. It just gets the facts of your case in order.
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 Miami pedestrian accident can disappear quickly, so it is best not to wait to get a review.
