If you have been hurt in a Florida traffic accident or have sadly lost a loved one to another driver’s negligence, our Florida personal injury lawyers will discuss your legal rights and options to hold the reckless driver accountable for your financial recovery during a free consultation.
The Florida Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles reported 401,867 total collisions throughout the state last year, resulting in 255,253 injuries, of which, over 14,000 were catastrophic, permanently changing our resident’s lives without notice.
When negligent drivers get behind the wheel of any vehicle, no matter its size, other motorists are going to get hurt.
Speeding and aggressive driving accounted for over 25,000 crashes throughout Florida last year, leaving nearly 4,000 people injured over 1,260 catastrophically, and nearly 400 dead.
Negligence is also a major factor in collisions when intoxicated drivers decide to get behind the wheel, instead of calling a friend, family member, taxi, or ordering an Uber or Lyft to get home safely.
Last year, there were nearly 5,000 alcohol-related crashes throughout Florida, injuring over 2,500 people, and killing nearly 800 more.

At MLG Injury, our auto accident attorneys in Florida assess each of our client’s unique cases based on the circumstances that caused their collision.
We review the injured party’s initial statement during a free consultation and investigate the evidence, medical requirements, and complete financial recovery needs to customize a legal strategy to pursue the outcome they deserve from the negligent driver’s insurance company.

Unfortunately, not everyone survives their accident injuries after a collision on our Florida roadways. With nearly 3,200 people killed during traffic crashes in our state last year, families are left reeling from the physical, emotional, and financial fallout.
If your loved one was killed by a negligent driver in Florida, you may be eligible to pursue a wrongful death claim to recover the financial losses your family will experience because of your loss.
We know no amount of money will bring your loved one back, but it may help you pay the expenses associated with their death and take the time you need to fully grieve.
Wrongful death recovery costs may include:
The family member who is eligible to pursue a wrongful death claim in Florida is often the beneficiary named in the deceased’s will. If one does not exist, the court will appoint a representative, which may include the deceased’s spouse, children, or parents.
Family members or estate representatives have two years to file a wrongful death claim in the state of Florida. If you have lost a loved one, time is of the essence to begin investigating their loss, collecting evidence, and pursuing the negligent party who is liable for their death.
