Auto Accidents
Experienced car accident attorneys fighting for maximum compensation for Miami accident victims.
A car accident changes everything in an instant. One moment you're driving to work, picking up your kids, or heading home—the next, you're dealing with injuries, a damaged vehicle, mounting medical bills, and an insurance adjuster who seems more interested in protecting their company than helping you heal. If you've been injured in a car accident in Miami or anywhere in South Florida, you're probably feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, and unsure where to turn.
We understand. At Emas Law Group, we've seen firsthand how car accidents turn lives upside down. You shouldn't have to fight insurance companies while you're trying to recover. That's where we come in.
If you've been frustrated by the insurance company's response—or lack of response—you're not imagining things. Insurance companies have one goal: pay as little as possible. They'll downplay your injuries, question your medical treatment, claim you were partially at fault, or pressure you to settle quickly before you understand the full extent of your damages. These tactics aren't personal—they're systematic. And they work on people who don't have experienced legal representation.
Here's what makes us different: Stacy spent years as an insurance defense attorney. She knows exactly how insurance companies think, what tactics they use, and how to counter every single one. She's been in their strategy meetings. She's seen their playbooks. Now, she uses that insider knowledge to fight for accident victims, not against them.

The Unique Dangers of Miami's Roads
Miami consistently ranks among the most dangerous cities in America for drivers. Between aggressive driving on I-95, congested traffic on the Palmetto Expressway, tourist drivers unfamiliar with local roads, and the notorious Dolphin Expressway interchange, South Florida's roadways present constant hazards. Add in Florida's high rate of uninsured drivers, frequent severe weather, and the distractions of a busy urban environment, and it's no wonder car accidents happen every single day.
We know these roads. We drive them every day. We understand the specific challenges Miami drivers face, and we use that local knowledge to build stronger cases for our clients.
Don't wait. Florida law limits how long you have to file a claim. Contact us today for your free consultation: (305) 433-3135.
What should I do immediately after a car accident in Miami?
First, seek medical attention—even if you don't think you're seriously injured. Some injuries, like whiplash or internal bleeding, don't show symptoms right away. Second, document everything: take photos of the accident scene, your vehicle damage, visible injuries, and get contact information from witnesses. Third, report the accident to the police and your insurance company. Finally, do not give a recorded statement to the other driver's insurance company or sign anything before speaking with an attorney. Insurance adjusters are trained to get you to say things that will hurt your claim.
How long do I have to file a car accident claim in Florida?
In Florida, you generally have two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. However, there are exceptions and complications. For example, if the accident involved a government vehicle, you may need to file a notice of claim within a much shorter timeframe. Don't wait—evidence disappears, witnesses forget details, and insurance companies become less cooperative over time. The sooner you contact an attorney, the stronger your case will be.
What if the other driver doesn't have insurance?
Florida has one of the highest rates of uninsured drivers in the country—nearly 20% of drivers on the road have no insurance. If you're hit by an uninsured driver, you may be able to recover compensation through your own uninsured motorist (UM) coverage. Many people don't realize they have this coverage or don't understand how to use it. We help you navigate these complex claims and maximize your recovery, even when the at-fault driver has no insurance.
How much is my car accident case worth?
Every case is different, but compensation typically includes medical expenses (past and future), lost wages, loss of earning capacity, property damage, pain and suffering, emotional distress, and in severe cases, punitive damages. The value of your case depends on the severity of your injuries, the clarity of fault, the available insurance coverage, and how well your case is documented and presented. Insurance companies will try to minimize your claim—that's why having an experienced attorney makes all the difference. During your free consultation, we'll give you an honest assessment of your case's potential value.

Your Path to Compensation
When you hire Emas Law Group to handle your car accident case, here's what happens:
- Free Consultation – We listen to your story, review your case, and explain your legal options. No cost, no obligation.
- Investigation – We gather police reports, medical records, witness statements, accident scene photos, and any other evidence needed to prove your case.
- Demand and Negotiation – We send a detailed demand letter to the insurance company outlining your damages and why you deserve full compensation. Then we negotiate aggressively on your behalf.
- Litigation (If Necessary) – Most cases settle, but if the insurance company refuses to offer fair compensation, we're fully prepared to take your case to trial.
- Recovery – When we secure a settlement or verdict, we handle all the paperwork and make sure you receive every dollar you're owed.
Throughout the entire process, we handle all communication with insurance companies, deal with medical providers, and keep you updated every step of the way. You focus on healing—we focus on fighting for the compensation you deserve.
Don't Face the Insurance Companies Alone
After a car accident, you're facing medical bills, lost wages, pain, and uncertainty about the future. The insurance company has a team of lawyers and adjusters working to pay you as little as possible. You need someone on your side who knows how they think and how to beat them at their own game.
At Emas Law Group, we've recovered millions for car accident victims across South Florida. We combine Stacy's insider knowledge of insurance defense tactics with David's aggressive advocacy and trial experience. We speak your language—literally and figuratively—and we're here to guide you through every step of this process.
You don't have to go through this alone. You don't have to accept the insurance company's first offer. And you don't have to worry about upfront costs—we work on contingency, which means you pay nothing unless we win.
Call us today at (305) 433-3135 or contact us online for your free, no-obligation case review. We're available 24/7 because we know accidents don't wait for business hours. Let us fight for the justice and compensation you deserve.

Frequently Asked Questions
What should I do immediately after a car accident in Florida?
After a car accident in Florida, first ensure everyone's safety and call 911 if there are injuries. Move to a safe location if possible. Exchange information with the other driver including names, insurance details, and license plate numbers. Take photos of the accident scene, vehicle damage, and any visible injuries. Get contact information from witnesses. Seek medical attention even if you feel fine, as some injuries may not be immediately apparent. Report the accident to your insurance company, but avoid giving recorded statements without consulting an attorney first.
How long do I have to file a car accident lawsuit in Florida?
In Florida, you generally have two years from the date of the car accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. This is known as the statute of limitations. However, it's important to act quickly because evidence can disappear, witnesses' memories fade, and insurance companies may use delays against you. We recommend consulting with a personal injury attorney as soon as possible after your accident to protect your rights and preserve crucial evidence.
What compensation can I recover after a car accident in Florida?
After a car accident in Florida, you may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses (past and future), lost wages and loss of earning capacity, pain and suffering, emotional distress, property damage, and in some cases, punitive damages. The exact amount depends on factors like the severity of your injuries, the impact on your daily life, and the circumstances of the accident. Our attorneys work to maximize your compensation by thoroughly documenting all damages.
Do I need a lawyer for a car accident claim in Florida?
While you're not legally required to hire a lawyer, having an experienced car accident attorney significantly improves your chances of receiving fair compensation. Insurance companies have teams of lawyers working to minimize payouts. An attorney can handle negotiations, gather evidence, deal with insurance adjusters, and take your case to trial if necessary. Most personal injury attorneys, including Emas Law Group, work on contingency, meaning you pay nothing unless we win your case.
What if the other driver doesn't have insurance in Florida?
If you're hit by an uninsured driver in Florida, you may still have options for compensation. Your own uninsured/underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) coverage can provide protection. Florida law requires insurance companies to offer this coverage. You may also be able to pursue a lawsuit directly against the at-fault driver, though collecting may be difficult. Our attorneys can review your policy and help you understand all available options for recovery.
