Best & Anderson, P.A.

The sunshine and warm Florida temperatures attract millions of visitors each year. With that large number of visitors, come more automobiles and, unfortunately, more accidents. This is not to say that the accidents are caused by tourists because that is certainly not the case. Excessive speed, alcohol and fatigue all contribute to the number of accidents on Florida's roads each year. If you are involved in a car accident in Florida, there are certain bits of information you need to know about the basic laws in Florida concerning fault and liability following a car accident.

Negligence resulting in a Florida car accident is grounds for a lawsuit. If you are injured as a result of a car accident in Florida, then you should seek legal advice in order to receive the compensation you deserve. If you just deal with the insurance company of the other driver in a Florida car accident, you may be cheating yourself out of money to which you are entitled. Experienced car accident and personal injury attorneys such as David Best and Dutch Anderson of Best & Anderson, Attorneys at Law in Orlando, Florida can help advise you on what course of action to take following your accident.

Even though it is sometimes difficult to show negligence in a Florida car accident, we will work diligently to get all the facts surrounding the case. You also have to prove that you suffered damages if, indeed, you did, either personal injury or property damage. In addition, if you are involved in a Florida car accident, we will also look for compensation for such things as mental anguish and inconvenience.

Florida has a “No-Fault” clause attached to insurance claims for a Florida car accident. This means that you can collect from the "at fault" driver for such things as significant bodily damage, permanent injury or scarring and death. If you are responsible in any way for the Florida car accident, the court may reduce the amount of your settlement by the amount in which it finds that you are responsible. We will work to reduce this amount to zero so that you do not have to pay any money.
