Miami Personal Injury Lawyer Who Speaks Spanish
Eduardo "Eddie" Jimenez is a Spanish-speaking attorney licensed in Florida since 2003 (Florida Bar #674907) whose stated practice area is personal injury. Because a Florida license covers the entire state, he can review and handle injury matters that arise in Miami and Miami-Dade County.

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.
- City of Miami, including Downtown, Brickell, Little Havana, Wynwood, Allapattah and Coconut Grove
- Miami Beach, North Beach and South Beach
- Hialeah, Doral, Sweetwater and Miami Springs
- Kendall, Westchester, Coral Gables and South Miami
- North Miami, North Miami Beach, Aventura and Opa-locka
- Homestead, Cutler Bay, Palmetto Bay and the South Dade corridor
Common Miami-area injury situations
- Crashes on I-95, the Palmetto Expressway (SR 826), the Dolphin Expressway (SR 836), US-1 and the Florida Turnpike
- Rideshare crashes involving Uber or Lyft, where personal and commercial coverage can overlap
- Truck and delivery-vehicle collisions on freight and port routes
- Motorcycle and scooter crashes, including disputed-fault cases
- 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.

“EJ Law (Eduardo Jimenez) represented me on two (2) different, unrelated occasions and my daughter (a minor) once. He was professional and respectful in all our interactions. Eddie always made sure we understood the process, the reasons why things occur in the order they do, and kept me abreast of each step we were taking in my law suit. He took personal interest in our medical and mental health care and was readily available, no matter what time of the day it was, when needed. We were confident in his expertise, knowing he was looking out for what was in our best interest. I have and will continue to refer others to Eddie, knowing he will do all he can for his clients. Having known him for 5+ years, I know we weren't just another "case" to him. His clients become an extension of who is important in his life. Eddie is a hard worker, honest and resilient. He truly is an AMAZING Lawyer.”
