How We Help Injured Floridians

Shapiro | Delgado serves clients in Sarasota and throughout all of Florida. Our attorneys are experienced, knowledgeable, and deeply focused on personal injury law. 

We’ve helped injured people pursue compensation after accidents that left them with medical bills, lost wages, pain, and lasting hardship.

Our practice areas include:

  • Car Accidents
  • Truck Accidents
  • Pedestrian Accidents
  • Brain Injury
  • Spinal Injury

  • Medical Malpractice
  • Product Liability

Whether your injury happened on a Sarasota roadway, at a business on Main Street, or anywhere else in Florida, we’re ready to review your personal injury case at no cost to you.

What Your Injury May Have Cost You

A serious injury touches every part of your life. The losses go far beyond hospital bills. When we evaluate your case, we look at the full picture of what you’ve suffered and what you may continue to face.

The compensation we pursue on your behalf may cover:

  • Medical expenses, including surgeries, therapy, and ongoing care
  • Lost income and reduced earning ability
  • Pain and suffering
  • Emotional distress
  • Property damage
  • Loss of enjoyment of life
  • Wrongful death damages for families who have lost a loved one

We work with medical professionals, accident reconstruction analysts, and financial experts to help document your losses and strengthen your personal injury claim. Past results do not guarantee future outcomes, but we bring the same commitment to every case we take.

We meticulously prepare each case as if it were going to trial as this often increases the probability of obtaining a more favorable settlement outcome.

Do I Really Need a Personal Injury Lawyer in Florida?

Insurance companies have legal teams working for them from day one. You should too.

If someone else’s negligence caused your injury, working with a skilled attorney may significantly affect the outcome of your claim.

A personal injury attorney helps you gather evidence, meet deadlines, and pursue the compensation your situation calls for. You don’t have to go it alone against a system that isn’t designed in your favor.

Sarasota sees thousands of accidents each year on roads like US-41, in parking areas near St. Armands Circle, and in spaces across Manatee and Sarasota counties. If you were hurt in any of these places, your first call should be to an attorney, not the insurance company.

How Long Do I Have to File a Personal Injury Lawsuit?

Florida law gives injured people two years from the date of their accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. This is called the statute of limitations. If you miss this deadline, you may lose your right to pursue compensation entirely, regardless of how strong your case may be.

Two years sounds like a long time. It isn’t. Evidence disappears. Witnesses forget. Medical records become harder to connect to the accident. The sooner you contact us, the sooner we can begin building your case.

Call Shapiro | Delgado now at (941) 954-4000. Don’t wait until it’s too late.

“I can’t thank the Shapiro Delgado firm enough!”

Everyone in the building was so friendly and great to work with! Adam was our attorney and I couldn’t have wished for a better experience. He was very communicative and always quick to respond to an email. He made himself available whenever we had any questions and we are very happy with the outcome of our case! Thank you so much!

I highly recommended this firm, Shapiro | Delgado. Thank you, Adam, David and Felicia. I was extremely satisfied with the team’s professionalism, legal expertise, and diligence. Notwithstanding the at fault party denying liability, my case was settled in my favor! #Justice

Danielle J.

“Both David and Adam are particularly effective, honorable, and to me, most importantly, highly communicative attorneys.”

If it matters to you not only how effectively they operate but also how well they communicate and keep you updated, I would very strongly recommend them for any legal case for which they are qualified to represent. Thank you.
Michael A.

“He has great knowledge of the law and consistently demonstrates professionalism and sensitivity.”

My experiences with David Shapiro are similar to those of others who have commented. He has great knowledge of the law and consistently demonstrates professionalism and sensitivity. David is a caring and compassionate soul, a true advocate, who one can trust to effectively represent one’s case to achieve the desired outcome and he is quite successful in his efforts. I never hesitate to recommend him.

Frequently Asked Questions About Florida Personal Injury Claims

What does a free consultation with Shapiro | Delgado include?

During your free consultation, we review the facts of your case, answer your questions, and give you an honest assessment of your options. There’s no cost and no obligation. You leave with a clearer picture of where you stand and what steps may be available to you.

What should I do right after an accident in Florida?

Seek medical attention first, even if you feel fine. Document everything — photos, names of witnesses, police reports. Avoid giving recorded statements to insurance companies before speaking with an attorney, and don’t post on social media. Then call us. Acting quickly protects your health and your claim.

What if the insurance company already offered me a settlement?

Don’t accept a settlement offer without speaking to an attorney first. Initial offers are often far below what your personal injury claim may actually be worth. Once you accept, you typically waive your right to pursue additional compensation. Let us review any offer before you respond.
