Personal Injury Protection (PIP) Should Cover Some of Your Car Accident Expenses
According to the Florida Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FLHSMV), PIP insurance is mandatory for all registered vehicle owners in Florida. Regardless of who was at fault for the accident, PIP should pay up to 80% of your necessary and reasonable medical bills and lost wages.
If PIP insurance does not cover all your medical bills or your injuries meet the serious injury threshold described in Florida Statutes § 627.737, your Panama City Beach car accident lawyer will seek additional compensation. Our legal team will track your injuries, treatment protocol, and current and future medical care to support your right to file an additional third-party personal injury claim or lawsuit.
Compensation We Can Request Via a Third-Party Liability Claim in Panama City Beach
After establishing the liable party’s negligence and the severity of your injuries, Florida Statutes § 768.81 allows you to seek economic damages, such as:
- Past, present, and future medical expenses
- Past, present, and future lost income
- Vehicle damage or total destruction
- Diminished vehicle value
We will also request compensation for the non-economic damages you incur, including:
- Disability or disfigurement
- Pain and suffering
- Mental and emotional anguish
- Lost enjoyment of life
Your Panama City Beach personal injury attorney will collect bills and other documents to support the value of your compensation request.

How Our Panama City Beach Car Accident Attorneys Identify and Prove Negligence
All drivers owe everyone else on the road a duty of care. When they do not follow the rules of the road, they breach that duty. Duty of care and breach of duty are two of the elements of negligence we will aim to prove in your case.
We will also aim to prove the accident would not have occurred without the at-fault party’s actions (causation) and gather evidence of its financial consequences (damages).
Documenting Your Injuries and the At-Fault Party’s Financial Liability
The evidence we compile for your car accident case file may include:
- Police report, medical records, and first responder reports
- Lay and expert witness statements and accident reconstruction
- Smartphone, security, surveillance, and dashcam footage
Building your case file is only one of the many things our personal injury lawyers will do for you. We will also negotiate for the best possible compensation package and represent you in court if we cannot reach a fair settlement agreement.

Do Not Let Time Run Out on Your Right to File Your Car Accident Lawsuit
Recovering from a car accident can require significant time and attention. However, you must still file your lawsuit within Florida’s personal injury statute of limitations. A recent change in the law reduced the filing deadline from a general four-year deadline to just two years.
Florida Statutes § 95.11 also gives you two years to file your wrongful death lawsuit. The filing deadline can be hard to interpret on your own because it can change depending on unique circumstances. Your Panama City Beach car accident injury lawyer can interpret the date for you and help you avoid filing your lawsuit too late.
