Car accidents happen every day in America. You could be driving home from work and have a head-on collision with a drunk driver. At a red light a driver who is texting while driving can rear-end your car and injure you. Or, you could be sideswiped by a truck driver and require the legal services of a truck accident lawyer. A lot of these car crashes are caused by negligence and are avoidable.

After a car accident, you are likely to be in shock and you may have many questions. You will probably be asking who is going to pay for your medical bills and repair your car. Florida has a "no-fault" system. That means injuries and damage are compensated by your own insurer even if another driver caused the accident. However, if you sustain severe or permanent injuries you can sue the party at fault. To get compensation after your crash, you should talk to a Lakeland car accident lawyer.
