Boynton Beach Personal Injury Lawyer

Boynton Beach sits in the southern end of Palm Beach County, and that has a practical consequence people rarely know until they need it: a case arising here is not heard in downtown West Palm Beach. It goes to the South County Courthouse in Delray Beach. Our office is at 1375 E Gateway Blvd, and a case arising here is filed in the Fifteenth Judicial Circuit, South County Courthouse in Delray Beach. Call 833-370-8692 and speak to a lawyer about what happened. The consultation is free and you pay nothing unless we win.

Local knowledge

Where Palm Beach County crashes happen

That distinction is why this office exists. For families in Boynton, Delray, Lake Worth and Boca Raton, the South County Courthouse is the one they would actually have to attend, and our office on East Gateway Boulevard is closer to it than any downtown firm. The Fifteenth Judicial Circuit covers both, but the division a case sits in affects scheduling, local practice and the pool a jury is drawn from.

The collisions concentrate at the I-95 interchange at Boynton Beach Boulevard and along the Congress Avenue shops, with serious injuries going to Bethesda Hospital East. South county also has a dense concentration of retirement and gated communities, which produces a steady volume of premises claims arising in common areas where an association and a management company are frequently both responsible.

The two claim types that come out of those roads most often are Boynton Beach car accident claims and Boynton Beach slip and fall claims. Everything else we handle in Palm Beach County is listed above.

What to do in the first week

  • Get evaluated, even if you felt fine at the scene. Gaps in treatment get used against you.
  • Report the crash to your own insurer, but do not give the other side a recorded statement.
  • Photograph the vehicles, the scene, and your injuries while they are visible.
  • See a doctor within 14 days of a crash, or your own coverage pays nothing at all.

Questions

Boynton Beach questions we get

Would my case be heard in Delray Beach or in West Palm Beach?

Generally at the South County Courthouse in Delray Beach, which serves the southern end of the Fifteenth Judicial Circuit. It is a practical difference rather than a legal one, but it decides where you would have to appear, and our Boynton office is a short drive from it.

Where is your Boynton Beach office?

1375 E Gateway Blvd, Boynton Beach, FL 33426. Consultations are free, and we can come to you if you cannot travel.

Which court will my Palm Beach County injury case be filed in?

Most Palm Beach County personal injury suits are filed in the Fifteenth Judicial Circuit, South County Courthouse in Delray Beach. Claims under $50,000 are heard in county court, and larger claims go to circuit court.

How long do I have to file an injury lawsuit in Florida?

Two years from the date of the accident, if it happened on or after March 24, 2023. Accidents before that date carry the older four-year deadline. Claims against a government entity have their own shorter notice requirements.

More of what people ask before they call is on our Florida injury claim FAQ, and the other four offices are on our locations page.
