Serving accident victims across Broward County
Broward’s road network funnels nearly two million residents plus visitors through a handful of brutal corridors: Interstate 95, Interstate 595, and Interstate 75 where it meets Alligator Alley, plus Florida’s Turnpike, the Sawgrass Expressway, U.S. 1, U.S. 441, and Broward Boulevard. Port Everglades and the airport add constant commercial-truck and rideshare traffic to the mix.
After a serious wreck, many Broward victims are treated at Broward Health Medical Center in Fort Lauderdale or Memorial Regional Hospital in Hollywood — both Level I trauma centers — before the medical bills and adjuster calls begin. Fort Lauderdale is the county seat, and injury cases for county residents are generally pursued there — Broward County sits in Florida’s Seventeenth Judicial Circuit.

Broward County injury FAQ
I was hit by a rideshare driver on I-95. Whose insurance pays?
It depends on what the driver was doing at the moment of the crash — rideshare coverage changes by the minute. We untangle the layers and pursue every available source of recovery.
The crash happened near the port with a commercial truck. Is that a different kind of case?
Yes — commercial and port traffic cases involve federal regulations, corporate insurers, and evidence that disappears quickly. Moving fast matters.
What if I was partly at fault?
Florida law may still allow recovery when fault is shared, but the rules are strict and insurers use them aggressively. Get advice before accepting any blame.
The driver who hit me was Canadian. Does that change my case?
It adds cross-border insurance layers — and often a defendant who goes home in spring. It is more work, not a dead end. See our guide on being hit by a Canadian driver in Florida.
