The lawyers in this building
This photograph was taken in the lobby downstairs. Our office is at 2101 W Commercial Blvd, Suite 1500, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33309, and the partners and trial attorneys in it are the people you would work with directly, from the first conversation through to the last.
They have been trying Broward County injury cases together since 1993, and Broward is the county this firm has worked longest.

Broward has a marine and airport workforce, and for those workers state comp may be the wrong system entirely.

The first question is not medical. It is which company actually holds the license.
View →Fort Lauderdale Catastrophic Injury Lawyer
Proving it is rarely the hard part. Finding enough coverage to pay for it is.
View →Where Broward crashes happen
Broward County records some of the highest crash volume in Florida, and the pattern is predictable. I-95 through Fort Lauderdale, the I-595 interchange, Federal Highway, and Broward Boulevard produce a steady share of the serious injury cases we see. Port Everglades container traffic puts heavy commercial trucks onto the same roads as commuters.
Where you are treated matters too. Broward Health Medical Center and Holy Cross are the trauma destinations for most of these crashes, and their records become the backbone of your claim. We request them early, before an insurer builds a version of your injuries from an emergency room summary alone.
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.

Cities we cover from Fort Lauderdale
We hold no office in these cities and do not claim one. Each is worked from Fort Lauderdale, and a case from any of them files in the Broward County Courthouse.
Pompano Beach Personal Injury Lawyer
Pompano Beach sits directly north of our Fort Lauderdale office, and its worst collisions cluster at the I-95 interchanges at Atlantic Boulevard and Copans Road.
View →Hollywood Personal Injury Lawyer
Hollywood carries airport traffic, port traffic and beach traffic through the same few miles, which is why so many of its injury claims involve someone who does not live there.
View →Hallandale Beach Personal Injury Lawyer
Hallandale Beach is one square mile of dense condo blocks on the Miami-Dade line, and its injury claims look like the population: older residents, short trips, and a lot of parking lots.
View →Margate Personal Injury Lawyer
No interstate runs through Margate, so its serious crashes happen where they are hardest to reconstruct: on wide surface main roads with a signal every few hundred yards.
View →Tamarac Personal Injury Lawyer
Our Fort Lauderdale office is on Commercial Boulevard, the same road that runs the length of Tamarac, which makes this one of the closest markets we work.
View →Weston Personal Injury Lawyer
Weston is the last city on I-75 before Alligator Alley, which puts long-distance interstate traffic and quiet residential streets a few hundred yards apart.
View →Pembroke Pines Personal Injury Lawyer
Pines Boulevard runs the entire width of Pembroke Pines as a six-lane main road lined with driveways, which is the road geometry that produces the most left-turn collisions in the city.
View →Deerfield Beach Personal Injury Lawyer
Deerfield Beach sits on the Palm Beach County line with I-95, the Sawgrass Expressway and Hillsboro Boulevard all converging inside a few miles, and the county line itself is a complication worth knowing about.
View →Plantation Personal Injury Lawyer
Plantation is where I-595, Broward Boulevard and University Drive meet, which makes it one of the busiest few square miles in the county and a short drive from our office.
View →Coral Springs Personal Injury Lawyer
Coral Springs is a planned grid of wide main roads with the Sawgrass Expressway along its western edge, and its crash pattern follows the grid almost exactly.
