Can I File A Lawsuit?
Boynton Beach is subject to Florida Statutes § 627.736. This law mandates that drivers carry a $10,000 minimum of personal injury protection (PIP) insurance. In the event of a crash, this insurance will cover your damages up to its specified limit, regardless of fault.
Under certain circumstances, you can step outside the PIP system and file a lawsuit per Florida Statutes § 627.737. This applies if:
- You are pursuing a wrongful death legal action
- You experienced “significant and permanent loss of an important bodily function”
- You experienced scarring or disfigurement

What If I Was Partially Responsible For My Accident?
In Boynton Beach, a legal doctrine known as comparative negligence applies. Here’s how this works in the context of a broken ribs car accident: Imagine you were involved in a car accident and determined that another driver was at fault. Because you were talking on the phone, the court decides that you are partially responsible for the accident. This piece of evidence causes the court to assign you 35% fault.
Since you were 35% responsible for your accident, you could only receive 65% of an initial settlement evaluation. Therefore, if the jury award is $100,000, you’d ultimately receive $65,000.
Due to this rule, you can still receive compensation, even if you were partially responsible for your broken ribs car accident. However, if you are more than 50% responsible, you cannot receive compensation.
Broken Ribs Car Accident Lawsuit Deadline
Broken ribs car accident lawsuits are generally subject to a four-year deadline in Boynton Beach, per Florida Statutes § 95.11(3)(a). Missing this deadline will result in a forfeiture of your right to file a lawsuit. The deadline for wrongful death cases is shorter at only two years. Therefore, it’s to get started on your case as soon as you can.
The benefits of starting early include:
- Preserving the ability to use a lawsuit as a bargaining chip
- Signaling to the responsible driver that you intend to pursue compensation
- Having more time to gather evidence
