What to Do Immediately After a Daytona Beach Shores Car Accident
According to the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FLHSMV), Volusia County saw 9,648 crashes in 2022. For residents of Daytona Beach Shores, there is a possibility you may be involved in a car crash. If you are, you should do the following:
- Check yourself for injuries
- Check your passengers for injuries
- When you can safely do so, move to a spot away from traffic
- Call 911 to report the accident and request emergency medical assistance if necessary
- Without confronting anyone, calmly check on the condition of others involved in the crash
- Exchange contact and insurance information with the other drivers involved in the collision
- Don’t admit fault or make any statements about your injuries (or lack thereof) until you’ve seen a doctor
- Take pictures of the accident scene
- Get the names and contact information of witnesses
- Seek medical attention; don’t make assumptions about your health
- Save medical records
- Report the accident to your insurance company
Be wary of working directly with insurers after a crash. Our lawyers can handle discussions and negotiations with the insurance company.
The Benefits Of Choosing Our Daytona Beach Shores Car Accident Law Firm
Florida is a no-fault car insurance state. It doesn’t matter who caused a car accident—your own insurance provider is responsible for compensating you for medical bills and lost wages after a crash. However, you can pursue compensation from the party who caused the accident if your injuries are severe enough to meet or exceed a threshold established under Florida law.
The team at our Daytona Beach Shores car accident law firm can help you show why you have a right to file a third-party claim or lawsuit. We can also gather evidence establishing liability. Specific reasons to choose our firm include:
- We’re willing to come to you, making the process as easy as possible.
- We help our clients get access to top medical care.
- We offer contingency fee agreements to our clients. That means we charge no upfront fees for our services. Our fee is a pre-approved percentage of the compensation we recover for a client. We only get paid if you get paid.
- We handle all correspondence with the insurance company.
- We go the extra mile for clients, helping with such tasks as scheduling injury-related appointments and getting a vehicle repaired.
- You’ll receive your attorney’s cell phone number when you hire us, and you’ll get regular updates so you don’t have to worry about the status of your case.

Potential Damages Our Daytona Beach Shores Car Accident Lawyers Fight For
An insurance adjuster or liable party may not be inclined to explain to you all the damages that are potentially recoverable in your case. That’s one of the benefits of hiring our team. We strive to recover the maximum compensation owed to you for all your relevant losses.
Economic damages may be available after a Daytona Beach Shores car accident. These damages are financial in nature. Common examples include:
- Medical bills from Halifax Health Medical Center or another emergency room
- Lost wages and reduced earnings if injuries affect your ability to work
- Similar relevant financial losses, like the cost of hiring home services providers or purchasing mobility equipment
- Potential future losses, such as the cost of ongoing medical care
We can also pursue non-economic damages. Unlike economic damages, non-economic damages aren’t strictly financial. They reflect how the accident has impacted your quality of life. Examples include:
- Pain and suffering (which can include both physical and mental/emotional pain)
- Loss of enjoyment of life
- Loss of consortium
The Deadline For Filing A Daytona Beach Shores Car Accident Lawsuit
You have a limited amount of time to file a car accident lawsuit in the Volusia County Courts. Under Florida law, you have two years from the date of the crash to file a lawsuit. You’ll lose your right to compensation if you miss the deadline.
That doesn’t have to happen. At our firm, we’ll handle filing paperwork on your behalf. Hire us in a timely manner, and we’ll ensure all deadlines are met.
