Injury Lawyer in West Palm Beach

We commonly answer the questions about what rights someone has when they are in an accident.  These enquiries come from both drivers who caused the accident and those who did not.  
Drucker Law Offices is our personal injury lawyer in Boca Raton and we work to help our clients who have been involved in accidents.  We also have a Miami accident lawyer, North Miami injury lawyer, Pembroke Pines accident attorney, Miramar injury laywer, Plantation lawyer, Tamarac injury laywer, Coral Springs attorney and Fort Lauderdale injury attorney.  
For example, Mary and Joseph were involved in an accident.  Mary is stationery at a red right when Joseph rear-ends her car.  Joseph acknowledges fault.  Joseph receives a ticket.  They both go to the hospital.   They both miss a week of work.   After seeing their respective doctors, both Mary and Joseph are diagnosed with permanent injuries.  This is a requirement of the law to facilitate entitlement to pain and suffering. What are their rights and what are the differences between them?
Regarding the car, Mary would be able to put in a claim from Joseph's property damage coverage.  As Joseph was responsible for the accident, Mary's car should be fixed by his insurance company.  There would be no deductible and Mary would not go out of pocket anything through Joseph's insurance.  Joseph on the other hand cannot get his car fixed through Mary's insurance.  Joseph could get his car repaired through his own insurance if he is covered for collisions, though this would incur a deductible cost which should be in the range of £250 - £1,000. If Joseph does not have collision coverage, then he would have to fix his car and pay for it in full.
In Florida, PIP pays for 80 percent of medical bills and 60 percent of lost wages to a total of $10,000.00, without regard for fault.  Therefore, Mary and Joseph's rights in terms of the PIP coverage are the same in that 80 percent of their medical bills and 60 percent of the time they missed from work will be the same.  However, Mary is able to make a claim against Joseph for 20% of out of pocket expenses and the 40 percent wages.  Joseph will not be able to make that claim against either Mary or her insurance companyJoseph could try to have his medical expenses paid through health insurance if he has any.  In the event  of short term disability insurance like sick leave, then he can claim extra monies from that source.
The last issue that would remain would be the issue of pain and suffering.   Mary would be able to make a claim for pain and suffering in the event of permanent injury (or dealth; or permanent  disfigurement; or signficiant scarring).  Joseph would not have a claim for pain and suffering.
As you can see, while the person who was at fault does have some rights, there are much more rights for someone who was not at fault.  We help those people who are not at fault in an accident. We offer a free consultation.
