Local knowledge

What we see in Boca Raton

Boca Raton generates a particular mix. Glades Road carries mall and university traffic across the interstate, Yamato Road carries the office park commute, and Palmetto Park Road carries the traffic heading to the beach. All three cross I-95 within a few miles of each other, and the collisions cluster at the ramps and the first signal past them.

The city has both a large student population and a large retirement population using the same roads, which shows up in the caseload as a wide range of injury severity from similar impacts. The same rear-end collision that leaves one person sore for a week leaves another with a spinal injury requiring surgery. An insurer will argue the second outcome cannot follow from that impact. It can, Florida law takes the injured person as it finds them, and proving it takes treating physicians rather than argument.

Questions

Boca Raton questions we get

The insurance company says my injury is too severe for the impact. Now what?

That argument is made in almost every disputed case and it is not a legal rule. Florida law does not reduce what a defendant owes because the injured person was more vulnerable than average. What answers it is medical evidence: a treating physician explaining the mechanism, imaging that shows the injury, and a documented before-and-after. It is one reason gaps in treatment are damaging, because they give the argument something to point at.
