Florida No-Fault Attorney Helping Car Accident Victims

At the law office of Wesley, McGrail & Wesley PLLC, our attorneys are committed to helping people across the Florida Panhandle understand their rights after a car crash. Florida follows a no-fault insurance system, which means your own insurance generally pays certain expenses through Personal Injury Protection (PIP), regardless of who caused the accident. With more than 55 years of combined experience, our lawyers know how to handle both PIP claims and cases that fall outside the no-fault system.

We take the time to explain your options, challenge denied insurance claims, and pursue every available source of compensation. Whether your case is resolved through insurance benefits or requires a lawsuit against the at-fault driver, our goal is to protect your rights and maximize your recovery.

For a free consultation, contact us at 850-244-0999 and discuss your case with seasoned Florida car accident lawyers. We handle all cases on a contingency fee basis, which means you do not pay unless we recover for you.

How Florida’s No-Fault System Works

Florida law requires drivers to carry a minimum of $10,000 in personal injury protection coverage. After a crash, PIP usually covers:

• 80% of reasonable medical expenses
• 60% of lost wages if you cannot work
• Death benefits in fatal accident cases

However, PIP benefits are capped and may not cover the full costs of a serious injury. Insurance companies also deny or undervalue claims far too often. An experienced Florida no-fault lawyer can step in to make sure your rights are respected and your claim is handled fairly.

When Can You Step Outside the No-Fault System?

Although most claims are handled through PIP, Florida law permits injured drivers or passengers to bring a case against the negligent driver when their injuries meet the state’s serious injury threshold. This includes:

• Permanent loss of an important bodily function
• Permanent injury within a reasonable degree of medical probability
• Significant and permanent scarring or disfigurement
• Death

If your injuries qualify, you may be able to seek damages beyond what PIP covers, including pain and suffering. As skilled personal injury attorneys, we can evaluate your case and take the steps necessary to hold negligent drivers accountable.
