South Florida has a reputation for having some of the worst drivers in the country. In Miami Beach and in other South Florida cities, drivers routinely race through red lights or disobey traffic signals, other drivers must perform evasive maneuvers to avoid crashes and pedestrians must scatter. Serious injuries, including head and neck injuries, can result.

At the Fleet Law Firm, we represent clients who have suffered head and neck injuries in the following types of accidents:
Trauma to the head many not be noticeable immediately. Many accident victims will not be aware of changes in personalities or speech patterns following a closed head injury. Friends and relatives may notice. An attorney may realize that there is something wrong at the initial consultation. If you think you may have suffered a head injury, seek immediate medical attention and realize that you have a right to compensation.
Damage to the neck can seem minor at first but develop into severe pain that requires medical attention. Difficulty in standing and sitting can affect your job. Your pain, suffering and potential loss of income has monetary value. If the damage is permanent, money cannot make you feel better, but it can provide for you and your family members should you be limited or unable to work.
