Collecting accident reports, police records, witness statements, and, where available, traffic camera footage.

Challenging Insurance Tactics

We counter attempts to blame you (comparative negligence) or dispute your injuries, demanding what you truly deserve.

Understanding Florida’s Car Accident Laws & Insurance System

Florida is a “no-fault” state—your own insurance (PIP) pays your medical bills up to policy limits, no matter who caused the crash. But if you suffer “serious injuries” (as legally defined), you can step outside no-fault and file a claim against the at-fault driver for damages like pain and suffering or lost wages.
Reese Legal guides you through this maze, explaining when you can pursue additional compensation and how to prove your injuries meet the threshold.

From I-4 and Colonial Drive to high-traffic intersections across Orlando, Michael Reese knows the accident risks our community faces—and the insurers, courts, and adjusters who handle local claims. Our results include significant settlements and verdicts that allowed clients to cover all costs and move forward after serious wrecks.

Common Questions After a Car Wreck

  • What’s the average car accident settlement in Florida?

    It depends—severity of injuries, fault, and available insurance all play a role. We provide an honest estimate after reviewing your case.

  • How long do I have to file a claim?

    Florida’s statute of limitations is generally four years for car accident injury claims—don’t wait to start your case.

  • Do I have to go to court?

    Many cases settle, but we’re always prepared to take your case to trial for a better outcome if needed.

  • What if I was partially at fault?

    Florida’s comparative negligence law may reduce your compensation, but you can still recover damages. We fight to minimize any blame placed on you.

  • How can an attorney help?

    We handle every detail—from paperwork to negotiation—so you can focus on recovery while we secure the best possible result.

Don’t Face the Insurance Battle Alone

The aftermath of a car crash is overwhelming—focus on getting better, and let Reese Legal handle the rest.
