Personal injury is all I do — and I do it personally

If someone else’s carelessness left you hurt, you deserve a lawyer who knows this area of law cold and gives your case his full attention. That’s the whole reason I built this practice.

The Florida basics

Three things every injured Floridian should know

Personal injury law changed significantly in Florida in 2023. Here’s the short version of what now affects nearly every case.

  • You have two years

    The deadline to file most injury lawsuits was shortened from four years to two. Miss it and your claim is usually barred.

  • 51% bars recovery

    Under modified comparative negligence, if you're found more than 50% at fault, you recover nothing. At 50% or less, your recovery is reduced by your share.

  • No-fault still applies to autos

    Your own PIP coverage pays the first $10,000 of medical bills after a car crash — but only if you seek care within 14 days.

Common questions

Car, truck, and motorcycle accidents; slip and fall and other premises-liability claims; negligent security; Uber, Lyft, and delivery-driver crashes; and wrongful death. Personal injury is the entire focus of my practice.

On a contingency fee. You pay nothing up front, and my fee comes out of the recovery only if I win. Your first consultation is always free.

It depends on the severity of your injuries and whether the insurer negotiates in good faith. Some cases resolve in months; more serious or contested cases take longer. I'll give you a realistic picture from the start.

No. I'm based in Jupiter and know Palm Beach County well, but I represent injured people throughout South Florida — and I'm licensed in both Florida and Georgia.
