Where injuries happen in Miramar
Miramar sits in southwest Broward County. Pembroke Pines is to the north. Miami-Dade County and the Miami Gardens area are to the south. Many Miramar residents drive into Miami-Dade for work every day, so a lot of our Miramar clients were hurt on the commute.
Two major highways run through the city: I-75 and Florida’s Turnpike. US-27 runs along the west edge. The main surface roads are Miramar Parkway, Pembroke Road, University Drive, Flamingo Road, Palm Avenue, Red Road and Dykes Road. Crashes on city streets are usually handled by the Miramar Police Department. Crashes on I-75 and the Turnpike are usually handled by the Florida Highway Patrol.
People hurt in Miramar are often taken to Memorial Hospital Miramar or Memorial Hospital West in Pembroke Pines. People with the most serious injuries may be taken to the trauma center at Memorial Regional Hospital in Hollywood. We collect the records and bills from each of these places as part of building a claim.
Car accidents in Miramar
Car crashes are the most common reason Miramar residents call us. Rear-end crashes in commuter traffic, left-turn crashes at busy intersections and highway crashes on I-75 and the Turnpike can all cause lasting injuries. Florida is a no-fault state, so your own PIP coverage pays first. PIP is limited, though, and it often runs out fast. When your injuries are serious, you may have a claim against the driver who caused the crash. Learn more on our car accident page.
Truck accidents near I-75 and the Turnpike
Miramar has warehouses and distribution centers, and the trucks that serve them use I-75, the Turnpike and the roads that connect to them. A loaded tractor-trailer can do far more harm than a car. Truck cases are also more complex. The driver, the motor carrier, the truck’s owner, the company that loaded the cargo and a maintenance company may all share the blame. Federal rules limit how long a driver can be behind the wheel, and electronic logging devices record those hours. We move quickly to ask that this evidence be saved. See our truck accident page.
Motorcycle accidents
Riders have almost no protection in a crash, so injuries are often severe. Many motorcycle crashes happen when a driver turns left or changes lanes without seeing the bike. One point surprises many riders: PIP does not cover motorcycle riders. That makes the at-fault driver’s insurance, and your own uninsured motorist coverage, very important. Riding without a helmet does not bar your claim, but the insurer may argue it should reduce your damages. Read more on our motorcycle accident page.
Slip and fall and premises liability
Stores, restaurants, apartment complexes and other property owners must keep their property reasonably safe. If you slipped on a spill in a Miramar business, Florida law requires you to prove the business knew about the hazard or should have known. For example, the spill was there long enough that staff should have found it, or it happened regularly. Video, incident reports and cleaning logs matter, and they can be lost quickly. Our slip and fall page explains how these cases work.
Catastrophic injuries: brain, spinal cord and burns
Some injuries change a life for good. Traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries and serious burns can mean long hospital stays, surgeries, rehab and care that lasts for years. These claims need careful proof of future medical needs and lost earning ability. Before founding Redondo Law in 2019, Mike spent six years at Holland & Knight defending major corporations in catastrophic injury and wrongful death cases. He knows how large defendants evaluate and fight these claims. Visit our catastrophic injury page.
Wrongful death
When a family member is killed because of someone’s negligence, Florida law allows a wrongful death claim. The claim is filed by the personal representative of the estate. It is brought on behalf of the estate and the survivors, which can include a spouse, children, parents and, in some cases, dependent relatives. The deadline is short: two years from the date of death. We handle the legal work so your family can focus on each other. See our wrongful death page.
Dog bites
Dog bites can cause deep wounds, scars and infections, and children are often the ones hurt. In Florida, dog owners can be held responsible when their dog bites someone. These claims are often paid by the owner’s homeowner’s or renter’s insurance. Learn more on our dog bite page.
What to do after an injury in Miramar
- Call 911. Ask for the police and get medical help for anyone who is hurt.
- See a doctor right away. After a car crash, you must get initial medical care within 14 days to use your PIP benefits.
- Take photos of the scene, the vehicles, the hazard and your injuries.
- Get names, phone numbers and insurance details from the other people involved and from witnesses.
- Ask for the crash report number or, after a fall, ask the business to write an incident report.
- Do not give a recorded statement to the other side’s insurance company. You have no duty to do so.
- Keep your bills, records, receipts and proof of missed work in one place.
- Talk to a lawyer before you sign anything or accept an offer.
Florida law you should know
For most negligence claims that arose on or after March 24, 2023, you have two years to file a lawsuit. Wrongful death claims must be filed within two years of the death. Claims against a government agency need written notice first and have damage caps. Florida also uses modified comparative negligence. If you are found more than 50% at fault, you generally recover nothing. At 50% or less, your recovery is reduced by your share of the fault. After a car crash, PIP pays up to $10,000, covering 80% of medical bills and 60% of lost wages, no matter who caused the crash.
How working with a Miami-based firm works
We do not have an office in Miramar. Our only office is at 2828 Coral Way in Miami. For most clients that makes no difference. You can meet with us by phone, by video or in person at the Miami office, whichever is easier. If your injuries keep you from traveling, we come to you, at home or in the hospital.
Lawsuits are filed in the county where the case belongs. Broward County cases are heard in Florida’s 17th Judicial Circuit, and the main courthouse is in downtown Fort Lauderdale. Mike is licensed throughout Florida and can file and handle your case there. Mike personally oversees every case, and our team keeps you updated in English or Spanish. Most of the work, such as gathering records, dealing with adjusters and signing documents, is done without you leaving home.
Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost to hire Redondo Law?
The consultation is free and there is no fee unless we win. We work on a contingency fee, which is a percentage of the recovery. Under Florida Bar rules, the standard maximum is 33 1/3% of a recovery up to $1 million if the case settles before the defendant files an answer to a lawsuit, and 40% after that through trial. You will receive and sign a Statement of Client’s Rights that explains this.
I live in Miramar but I was hurt in Miami-Dade. Can you still help?
Yes. This is common because so many Miramar residents work in Miami-Dade. A case like that may belong in Miami-Dade County instead of Broward. We handle cases in both counties, and we will tell you where yours should be filed.
The other driver had no injury coverage. What now?
This happens often. Florida does not require most drivers to carry bodily injury liability insurance. If you bought uninsured/underinsured motorist (UM) coverage, it can protect you here. UM coverage can also apply if the driver fled. We review every policy that might cover you, including your own.
What if I was partly at fault?
You may still have a claim. Here is a simple hypothetical. If you were 20% at fault, your recovery would be reduced by 20%. If you were found more than 50% at fault, you would generally recover nothing. Insurance companies often try to shift blame, so do not assume their view is correct.
Should I talk to the insurance adjuster?
You have no duty to give a recorded statement to the other driver’s insurer, and we suggest you do not. Your own policy usually requires you to cooperate with your own insurance company. Once you hire us, we handle those calls for you.
If you or someone in your family was hurt in Miramar, we are glad to talk. Read more about our personal injury practice, send us a message or call (305) 908-6778 any time, day or night.
