This page explains, in plain language, how Florida injury and insurance rules generally work for a crash or injury in the Miami area. It is general information, not legal advice about your own situation, and it is not a prediction of any outcome.
Areas of Miami-Dade County we take calls from
Injury claims are governed by Florida law statewide, so where in Miami-Dade the incident happened does not change the statutes that apply — but it does affect which police agency wrote the report, which hospital treated you, and which county the case would be filed in.

- Miami Beach, North Beach and South Beach
- Hialeah, Doral, Sweetwater and Miami Springs
- Kendall, Westchester, Coral Gables and South Miami

Common Miami-area injury situations

- Pedestrian and bicycle injuries at busy intersections and crossings
- Slip, trip and fall or negligent-security claims at hotels, apartment buildings, stores and parking garages
How Florida rules apply to a Miami claim
Florida uses a no-fault system for most private passenger vehicles. Under Florida Statute 627.736, Personal Injury Protection benefits are generally available regardless of who caused the crash, and the statute requires initial medical care to be received within 14 days of the crash for those benefits to be payable.
Florida Statute 95.11 sets the limitations period for negligence actions, and Florida Statute 768.81 addresses how a person's own percentage of fault can reduce recovery. Different categories of claims have different deadlines and notice requirements, so the deadline that applies to your facts should be confirmed as early as possible.
