When is it Too Late to Call an Attorney About a Car Accident in Florida?

March 03, 2023
Has it been weeks, months or maybe even years since your car accident occurred? Have you been trying to communicate with the insurance company and not received the results you were hoping for? If so, we can help.  When you are involved in a car crash you may experience a variety of traumas all at once. Physical, emotional, and mental trauma can take a toll and impact the way we perform our everyday tasks. If left untreated, our injuries can affect our quality of life. It is important to have someone guiding you along the way.   It may be scary to think of involving a lawyer when you get into a car accident. Some don’t want to “sue” another person and believe that is the only remedy that they have, because they simply do not know the law or how the process works. You may also have the impression that hiring a lawyer will cost you time and money that you don’t have, which may dissuade you from contacting a lawyer quickly.  You may have felt that you didn’t need a lawyer because you could handle taking care of your medical treatment and bills on your own.  These situations can be stressful. We are here to assure you that hiring a lawyer if you are injured, will help ease your stress. We will advise you of your rights and what potential claims you may have; we will communicate with you at every stage of the claim process; we will get ahead of the insurance companies and handle communications with them; we will investigate the claim; we will keep track of your medical treatment and billing; we will negotiate with the insurance companies to obtain a fair settlement for your claim and if that is not possible, we may file a lawsuit on your behalf if necessary. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Sa2Ze62icC0?si=-9pYRtCOeOpZ_xOS" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Are you scared of what it will cost to hire a personal injury attorney? No need to be. 

In Florida, hiring a personal injury attorney is done on a contingency fee basis. That means that it will not cost you money up front to sign up with our firm so we can handle your claim. We only get paid our fees and costs if we obtain a settlement or jury verdict for you. The fear of spending money should not be the reason that you do not contact a Florida car accident attorney. 

Are you aggravated with the insurance company?

You may have made the choice to handle the case on your own behalf. You may realize over time that the insurance company does not want to put a fair value on your claim and now you feel stuck. You are still in pain, suffering every day and don’t know what to do. Your next step would be to contact Casas Law, so we can get your case moving in the right direction. 

When is it too late to contact a lawyer for your personal injury matter or a car accident in Florida? 

The answer to that is- it depends. Florida has time limits for making claims due to a car accident. When you speak with one of our experienced car accident attorneys, we will explain the time limits that apply to your case. So don’t delay and call us today. The sooner you call us, the sooner we can begin working to get you the compensation that you deserve. Our consultations are always free. If you find yourself questioning if you need an attorney for your car accident case at any point, call Casas Law today.  The information contained in this blog does not constitute legal advice.

They were able to direct me with medical care questions, and advocate on my behalf with insurance companies.

Alex and his team were my rock after I was hit by a car while riding my bike. They were able to direct me with medical care questions, advocate on my behalf with insurance companies, and really listen on days where I had pain and was completely frustrated with my insurance company and their lack of response. Highly recommend!!!!

I was involved in a car accident that resulted in injuries and several complications. Throughout the entire process, my attorney, Nick Sarta, along with Dalia and the rest of the team, were always there for me every step of the way. They were professional, supportive, and kept me informed during a very difficult time. After my surgery, they continued to check in and make sure everything was handled properly. Their dedication and compassion made a stressful situation much easier to manage. I highly recommend Casas Law to anyone in need of representation. While I hope to never go through those circumstances again, I am truly grateful for all of their hard work and support.

Llevo poco tiempo en Estados Unidos y, aunque tuve la mala suerte de sufrir un accidente, tuve la gran suerte de encontrarme con ellos en el camino. Fue la mejor decisión que pude tomar. Son profesionales, responsables y, lo que más me gustó, es el trato cercano que tienen. Siempre responden cuando tienes alguna duda o problema.

No duden en confiar en ellos, ha sido la mejor elección que he podido hacer.

¡GRACIAS!
Atentamente Jesús.

Nicholas M. Sarta fue absolutamente el mejor. Como solo hablo español, era muy importante para mí trabajar con alguien que hablara español con fluidez, y él hizo que todo el proceso fuera mucho más fácil. Desde el principio, se tomó el tiempo para explicarme todo claramente en mi idioma, así que siempre entendí lo que estaba pasando.
Durante todo mi caso, Nicholas me mantuvo constantemente informado y nunca me dejó en la incertidumbre sobre ningún avance. Siempre estuvo disponible para responder mis preguntas y contestó rápidamente a todas mis llamadas y correos electrónicos. Su comunicación no solo fue profesional, sino también muy respetuosa y amable, lo que me hizo sentir valorado y apoyado.
Realmente aprecié su paciencia y dedicación. Es evidente que se preocupa profundamente por sus clientes y trabaja arduamente para obtener el mejor resultado posible. Si necesitas un abogado que sea conocedor, compasivo y respetuoso, recomiendo mucho a Nicholas M. Sarta. Él hizo que una situación estresante fuera mucho más fácil para mí y estoy muy agradecido por su ayuda.
Response from the owner:¡Muchas gracias por tus amables palabras! Nos alegra enormemente saber que Nicholas pudo acompañarte de manera clara y respetuosa durante todo tu proceso.
