Generally, if you are injured by another car while operating a moped, then you have a case against the car owner and driver for your damages. Your damages could include medical bills (in the past and in the future), lost wages and pain and suffering. Usually, in car accidents there will be PIP insurance to pay some of your medical bills and lost wages but generally mopeds are not covered by PIP and thus you medical bills will be due and owing, in Florida, unless you have health insurance. You do have the right to a lawyer, and certainly for a free consultation, like my law firm offers. Depending on your injuries, these cases have varying issues. It is important to note that, in terms of getting money, the law operates in a “fault” system; thus, you are only entitled to money against the other car IF the other car is at FAULT. If YOU are at fault, you are NOT entitled to any money.
If you have been in a car accident where you believe the other car was at fault, please call attorney Gary J. Drucker at Drucker Law Offices for a free consultation at 561-483-9199 (Boca Raton Main office) or 954-755-2120 (Coral Springs satellite office), 561-967-3840 (Lake Worth satellite office) or 305-981-1561 (Miami satellite office). Generally, the law firm works on a contingency fee basis, which means that fees are only charged if the law firm recovers money for you. Please call today for a free consultation!
Of course, a case based on a fact pattern such as the one above is unique and any other case should be judged based on the specific facts of the case. The advice in this blog is intended to be general and should not to be used as specific advice for a case, as the slightest difference in the facts could change the result. Also, this blog is, as the web site name suggests, based on Florida law and the laws of any other state could vary significantly from Florida.
