At Kogan & DiSalvo Personal Injury Lawyers, we are proud to serve the vibrant Central Beach community in Fort Lauderdale, FL, a coastal hub known for its stunning beaches, lively boardwalk, and attractions like Fort Lauderdale Beach Park and the International Swimming Hall of Fame. However, Central Beach’s busy streets, particularly State Road A1A and intersections like Las Olas Boulevard, are prone to accidents due to heavy traffic, pedestrian activity, and violations of Florida traffic laws.
According to the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles, Broward County reported over 41,000 crashes in 2023, with pedestrian accidents notably high in tourist-heavy areas like Central Beach. Florida Statute 316.130 requires drivers to yield to pedestrians in crosswalks, yet failure to do so often leads to collisions on A1A, where distracted driving and speeding are common. Additionally, the “Move Over” law (Florida Statute 316.126), expanded in 2024 to include disabled vehicles, is frequently violated, contributing to roadside crashes. As experienced personal injury attorneys, we understand the impact of these accidents and are here to help victims seek justice and compensation.
Our firm handles a broad spectrum of personal injury cases, each governed by specific circumstances where you may sue for injuries and damages. Below, we detail these case types, explain when you can pursue a claim, and highlight how Florida traffic laws may apply to establish liability.
Car accidents often result from violations like speeding, distracted driving (e.g., texting, prohibited under Florida Statute 316.305), or failure to yield. You can sue if another driver’s negligence, such as running a red light (Florida Statute 316.075), causes a crash. Liability may also involve manufacturers for defective parts or municipalities for poorly maintained roads. Our Fort Lauderdale car accident lawyers will investigate crash reports, review traffic camera footage, and negotiate with insurers to recover your medical costs, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
Motorcycle crashes frequently occur when drivers violate Florida Statute 316.2085 by failing to yield to motorcyclists or ignoring lane-sharing rules. You can sue if a negligent driver, defective bike part, or hazardous road condition causes your injuries. With motorcycles involved in 17% of Florida’s traffic fatalities, our attorneys will consult accident reconstruction experts to prove liability and secure compensation for your damages.
Truck accidents may stem from driver fatigue, overloading, or violations of federal regulations enforced under Florida Statute 316.302. You can sue the driver, trucking company, or cargo loader if their negligence causes a crash. Our truck accident lawyers will analyze driver logs and maintenance records to establish liability, pursuing damages for catastrophic injuries.
Delivery truck accidents often occur due to rushed drivers or poor vehicle maintenance, violating Florida Statute 316.183’s speed limits. You can sue if a driver’s recklessness or company negligence causes your injuries. We’ll gather evidence like delivery schedules to prove fault, ensuring compensation for your losses.
Tow truck accidents can result from improper vehicle securement or reckless driving, breaching Florida Statute 316.081’s lane usage rules. You can sue if an operator’s negligence causes a collision. Our team will investigate safety protocols to hold liable parties accountable, fighting for your damages.
Rideshare accidents involving Uber or Lyft may arise from driver distraction or speeding, violating Florida Statute 316.1926’s aggressive driving laws. You can sue the driver, company, or another party if their negligence causes your injuries. Our lawyers will navigate complex insurance policies to secure your compensation.
Taxi accidents can occur when drivers ignore traffic signals (Florida Statute 316.074) or companies hire unqualified drivers. You can sue if a driver’s or company’s negligence causes a crash. We’ll review driver records to prove liability, recovering damages for your injuries.
Boat accidents in Central Beach’s waterways may result from operator intoxication or failure to follow navigation rules under Florida Statute 327.33. You can sue if a negligent operator causes your injuries. Our boat accident lawyers will build a claim to recover damages for medical costs and emotional distress.
Catastrophic injuries, like brain or spinal damage, often stem from severe accidents caused by negligence, such as drunk driving (Florida Statute 316.193). You can sue if another’s actions lead to permanent impairment. Our attorneys will work with medical experts to pursue compensation for lifelong care.
Mass torts involve injuries from defective products or widespread negligence, like faulty drugs. You can sue manufacturers or distributors if their negligence harms you. Our team coordinates with other victims’ attorneys to hold corporations accountable, securing your damages.
Nursing home abuse occurs when facilities fail to provide adequate care, leading to injuries like falls. You can sue if a facility’s negligence harms your loved one. We’ll investigate care records to prove liability, fighting for justice and compensation.
Premises liability cases arise when property owners fail to maintain safe conditions, violating Florida’s duty of care laws. You can sue if a business’s negligence, like ignoring a wet floor, causes your injury. Our lawyers will document hazards to pursue damages.
Slip and fall accidents occur due to unsafe conditions, like unmarked spills. You can sue if a property owner’s negligence causes your fall. Our attorneys will prove negligence, ensuring compensation for medical bills and pain.
Spine injuries often result from crashes or falls caused by negligence, like speeding (Florida Statute 316.183). You can sue if another’s actions cause your injury. Our team will assess your condition with specialists to seek damages for ongoing care.
Workers’ compensation claims apply when you’re injured on the job due to unsafe conditions. You can file a claim and sue third parties if their negligence, like a contractor’s error, contributes. Our attorneys will guide you through Florida’s system and pursue additional lawsuits.
Bus accidents may result from driver error or poor maintenance, violating Florida Statute 316.615’s driver requirements. You can sue if a bus company’s negligence causes your injuries. We’ll investigate fleet records to establish liability, securing your damages.
Hurricane damage claims arise when insurers deny valid claims or property owners fail to mitigate hazards. You can sue for financial losses if an insurer acts in bad faith. Our lawyers will review your policy to fight for fair compensation.
Pedestrian accidents in Central Beach often occur when drivers violate Florida Statute 316.130 by failing to yield at crosswalks. You can sue if a driver’s negligence or poor road design causes your injuries. Our attorneys will build a case to recover your damages.
Product liability cases involve injuries from defective products, like unsafe vehicles. You can sue manufacturers or retailers if their negligence causes harm. Our team will analyze defects to pursue compensation for your injuries.
Social Security claims help if an accident-related disability prevents you from working. You can apply if your condition meets federal criteria. Our lawyers will assist with applications and appeals to secure your benefits.
Wrongful death lawsuits apply when negligence, like a DUI crash (Florida Statute 316.193), causes a loved one’s death. You can sue for funeral costs and emotional loss. Our compassionate attorneys will seek justice and compensation for your family.
If you’ve been injured due to negligence, you may recover economic, non-economic, and, in rare cases, punitive damages. Economic damages cover tangible losses, including medical expenses like hospital stays, surgeries, and future care for permanent injuries. Lost wages compensate for income missed during recovery, while loss of earning capacity addresses reduced future income due to disabilities. Property damage, such as vehicle repairs, and out-of-pocket costs, like transportation, are also recoverable. Non-economic damages address intangible losses, including pain and suffering for physical and emotional distress, mental anguish for severe psychological impacts, and loss of enjoyment of life for activities you can no longer enjoy. Punitive damages, awarded in cases of gross negligence like drunk driving, punish the defendant and deter similar conduct, with no cap in Florida for impairment-related cases. Our attorneys work with experts to calculate these damages, ensuring every loss is accounted for to maximize your compensation.
