Your car accident may result in a legal dispute with your insurance provider depending on the seriousness of the collision, the extent of the vehicle damage, and the extent of the injuries. There will be an opening of a PIP insurance (Personal Injury Protection) claim because Florida is a no-fault state. In order to receive compensation for the medical expenses and lost wages, you will also need to submit a claim with the negligent party’s insurance company.

It will now be up to the insurance provider to decide how your claim will turn out. Practically every aspect of your case—including the accident, the insurance, and the policy—will be unique.

Settlements can take as little as a few months or as long as more than a year, depending on how long you and the other party need to negotiate.
