Rear-end car collisions are not uncommon, accounting for about a third of all accidents. Yet, they are not always minor fender benders. Many victims suffer injuries that require ongoing medical care and time off work. When you are hurt in an accident like this, contacting a Sarasota rear-end collision lawyer is critical to recovering damages. At Shapiro | Delgado, our Sarasota car accident attorney goes to work building a strong case for you to recover fair damages for any losses that the driver caused to you.
Under Florida Statute 627.7407, the state requires drivers to maintain personal injury protection (PIP) coverage. As a no-fault state, PIP typically covers medical bills and damage to your vehicle, no matter who is at fault. The state requires each driver to maintain $10,000 worth of PIP to operate legally on the roadway. There are times when a rear-end accident could result in significantly higher losses than your PIP coverage may provide protection for, creating a situation where another person’s negligence led to your substantial loss. In many of these cases, you can still file a claim against the at-fault party for the losses owed to you. It becomes crucial that you document all of your losses carefully in these claims.
The details of a rear-end collision play an important role in determining fault in serious accidents. To determine fault, our legal team will use data from multiple sources, including information from police reports, witness statements, and video to demonstrate who was at fault. Some of the cases that may make these accidents more challenging include the following:
