Car Accidents in Florida

Florida sees hundreds of thousands of car accidents each year, many of which lead to significant injuries. In 2023, the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles recorded more than 394,000 crashes. Over 250,000 people were hurt in those incidents, illustrating the widespread impact crashes have across the state.

One of the most overlooked yet critical concerns after a crash is the financial aftermath. Here are key financial challenges many victims face:

Medical Expenses: Even with health insurance, out-of-pocket costs for emergency care, hospital stays, and physical therapy can quickly add up. Ongoing treatments like chiropractic visits or surgeries can burden families long after the crash.
Lost Wages: Injured individuals often have to take time off work to recover. For some, this means days or weeks of missed income; for others, it may result in permanent changes to their employment status or earning ability.
Vehicle Repairs or Replacement: Crashes often leave cars totaled or in need of extensive repairs. Insurance may not cover all of the costs, especially if the driver at fault is underinsured or uninsured.
Future Medical Needs: Some injuries require long-term care, including follow-up visits, medications, or assistive devices. Estimating and recovering these future costs is important to avoid financial strain later.
Childcare and Household Services: If a parent or caregiver is injured, additional costs may arise to cover childcare, housecleaning, or other daily tasks that become difficult during recovery.
