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. We handle Pembroke Pines claims from our Fort Lauderdale office, and a case arising here is filed in the Broward County Courthouse in Fort Lauderdale. Call 954-522-5800 and speak to a lawyer about what happened. The consultation is free and you pay nothing unless we win.
Florida shortened the deadline to file most injury lawsuits from four years to two years for accidents on or after March 24, 2023 (HB 837, amending Fla. Stat. § 95.11). Accidents before that date still carry the four-year deadline.
What we see in Pembroke Pines
The city is built around long east-west main roads with retail on both sides. Pines Boulevard, Sheridan Street and Taft Street all combine high speed limits with a continuous supply of vehicles turning across traffic into shopping centers. The classic case is a driver turning left on a permissive green who did not see an oncoming car, and fault is contested almost every time. Independent evidence, a witness who stopped, a dash camera, a plaza camera pointed at the entrance, is often the difference between a full recovery and a shared-fault reduction.
North-south, Flamingo Road and University Drive carry the traffic between I-75 and the Turnpike, and the interchanges at either end are where the serious crashes concentrate. The city also has a substantial commercial vehicle presence, delivery fleets serving the retail corridors, and a delivery driver in a company van brings an employer and a commercial policy into a claim that would otherwise be one driver against another.

The other driver and I both say we had the green. How is that resolved?
Rarely by the two accounts alone. It is resolved by whatever else exists: an independent witness, a dash camera, footage from a business at the corner, vehicle event data, the physical damage pattern, and sometimes the county's signal timing records. Collecting those before they are gone is the work. Florida also divide fault, so even a case where you carry part of the blame is a case worth bringing.
