Hurt in a Florida accident? Let's talk — today.
The insurance company started building its case the moment you were injured. You should have someone building yours. Truestead Law helps injured Floridians pursue what they're owed — and you pay no attorney's fee unless we recover for you.
Free, confidential, no obligation. We respond fast.
What to do after an accident in Florida.
Get medical care
See a doctor — even if you feel "okay." Some injuries surface days later, and a treatment record matters.
Document everything
Photos, names, the police or incident report, and what was said. Keep it.
Don't sign yet
An early settlement check or recorded statement can cost you. Talk to a lawyer before you sign or give a statement.

A free case review costs you nothing and starts the clock in your favor, not theirs.
Florida injury matters we take on.
Collisions caused by another driver's negligence — including serious-injury and commercial-truck cases.
Motorcycle crashes and Uber/Lyft passenger and driver claims, where coverage questions get complicated fast.
Florida is a boating state — and boating-injury claims have their own rules and insurers.
Injuries on unsafe property — stores, parking lots, apartments, and businesses that failed to keep premises safe.
When a facility's neglect harms an elder. This work connects directly to our elder law practice.
Compassionate, determined representation for families who have lost someone to another's negligence.
Straightforward, and on your side.
You pay nothing up front. Personal injury cases are handled on a contingency fee — there's no attorney's fee unless we obtain a recovery for you. If there is no recovery, you owe no attorney's fee. (As in any case, clients may be responsible for costs, and those terms are explained in writing before you sign.)
One firm. The right team. When your matter calls for litigation, Truestead Law brings in experienced Florida trial counsel as co-counsel and remains responsible for your case alongside them. You're told in writing who is working on your matter, and associating co-counsel does not increase your total fee. You always have one firm answering to you — ours.
We move quickly. Florida deadlines are real, and evidence fades. The sooner we start, the more we can protect.
Whether you have a claim, and what any claim may be worth, can only be evaluated by an attorney after reviewing your specific facts. We do not predict outcomes or estimate value online. Every case is different, and prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome.
You won. Now don't lose it.
Most injury firms hand you a check and say goodbye. We're also a Florida estate, real estate, and elder law firm — so when your case resolves, we can help you protect what you recovered: a plan so a settlement isn't lost to taxes, probate, or a bad decision, and counsel if you're putting it into a home. One relationship, for the whole of life.
Common questions after an injury.
Nothing up front. Injury cases are handled on a contingency fee — no attorney's fee unless we recover for you. If there's no recovery, you owe no attorney's fee. The full fee and cost terms are explained in writing before you sign anything.
Florida generally gives you a limited window to bring a negligence claim — for many cases, two years — but deadlines vary by the type of case and the facts, and some are much shorter. Because missing a deadline can end a claim entirely, talk to a lawyer as soon as possible.
No honest lawyer can tell you that from a web page. The value of a claim depends on facts only an attorney can evaluate after reviewing your situation. We don't predict outcomes or estimate value online — we review your case and tell you straight.
You retain Truestead Law. For matters that go into litigation, we associate experienced Florida trial counsel as co-counsel and stay responsible for your case with them. You'll always know in writing who is working on your matter, and bringing in co-counsel never increases your total fee.
Be careful. Adjusters are trained to settle quickly and cheaply, and a recorded statement can be used against you. You're not required to give one. Talk to us first — the call is free.
