Clearwater Car Accident Lawyer
It’s easy to forget about the risks you take every time you get behind the wheel of a car—that is until you have an accident. Then, it’s difficult to think about anything else. The effects of a car crash can be devastating—from the shock and pain of injury to overwhelming medical bills while you should be focusing on your recovery.
After the crash, you may find yourself victimized again: this time, by your insurance company. Unscrupulous insurance companies often low-ball or deny legitimate accident claims, just to improve their bottom line. And taking them on can be challenging— insurance companies have their own lawyers ready for clients that dispute their claims.
You need a powerful ally by your side, and you’ll find one in Morgan & Morgan. Since 1988, we have won over $9 billion for our clients. The Clearwater area car accident attorneys are part of an army of 700 lawyers throughout the United States with the experience, skills, and resources to fight for the compensation you deserve.
Your consultation is free, you don’t pay anything out-of-pocket, and there is never a fee unless we win your case. To find out more, fill out our free, no-obligation case evaluation form and a lawyer will contact you.

How Common Are Traffic Accidents in Florida?
If you’ve been in a car accident in Florida, you’re not alone. Florida has seen more than its fair share of car crashes in recent years. According to Florida Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FHSMV), in 2019 there were:
- 401,867 total crashes
- 236,753 injuries
- 18,063 incapacitating injuries
- 3,185 deaths
What Should I Do After the Accident?
If you are injured in a car accident in Florida, there are several important steps you should take:
- Seek medical care for your injuries. To qualify for no-fault insurance claims and additional compensation, you must seek medical care for your injuries within 14 days of the incident.
- Keep all medical records. Any attempt to recover compensation requires medical evidence, so keep all evaluations, treatment plans, and test results you receive when you are treated for the accident.
- Hire a lawyer. A Morgan & Morgan attorney can assist you in every step of your case, from helping to file your claim to building your strongest case to win the compensation you are entitled to.
Why Should I Hire a Lawyer?
If you’ve been injured in a car accident, you should focus on healing and getting your life in order—not on fighting big insurance companies. A lawyer can fight for maximum compensation and will:
- Fully investigate your accident. A lawyer can investigate your accident in full detail to find everything that might have relevance to your case, reviewing medical records, police reports, and eyewitness accounts.
- Construct your best case. The next step would be to assemble your strongest case, proving the seriousness of your injuries, and demonstrating how they were caused by negligence, enlisting expert testimony when necessary.
- Navigate complex laws. Florida has some complicated laws regarding car accident injury awards, including a Personal Injury Protection (PIP) no-fault law. With the help of a Morgan & Morgan attorney, you can navigate these laws for the best compensation possible.
- Pursue full and fair compensation. A car accident attorney will take all the necessary steps to negotiate for the best possible settlement and take your case to court if the other side’s offer is not sufficient.
What Injuries Can I Be Compensated For?
Florida’s no-fault insurance laws have a cap of $10,000 for injuries; however, many cases require much more to cover medical expenses and other losses. Accident victims can recover additional compensation by proving their accidents caused serious injuries such as:
- Paralysis
- Brain damage
- Scarring
- Head injuries
- Fractured bones
- Disfigurement
What Costs and Damages Can Be Reimbursed?
Legal action can win compensation for losses that occurred as a result of your accident, including the following:
- Medical expenses (current and future)
- Lost wages and earning capacity
- Pain and suffering
- Loss of enjoyment of life
- Mental anguish
- Wrongful death
- Funeral expenses
