What Does a Car Accident Lawyer in New Smyrna Beach Cost?
Most car accident lawyers in Florida work on a contingency fee basis, meaning they take a percentage of your settlement or verdict. Typical fees range from 33 percent to 40 percent of the recovery. Some lawyers also charge for case expenses like court filing fees and expert witness costs. These costs are usually deducted from your final settlement. This is general information, not legal advice.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the time limit to file a car accident lawsuit in New Smyrna Beach?
Under Florida Statute 95.11, you generally have four years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. If the accident resulted in a death, the wrongful death claim must be filed within two years. Missing these deadlines can bar you from recovering compensation.
Do I need a lawyer if I was partially at fault for the accident?
Florida follows a pure comparative negligence rule under Florida Statute 768.81. This means you can still recover damages even if you are partially at fault, but your award will be reduced by your percentage of fault. A lawyer can help argue that the other driver was primarily responsible.
What damages can I recover after a car accident in New Smyrna Beach?
You may recover economic damages like medical bills, lost wages, and property damage. You can also seek non-economic damages for pain and suffering if you have a permanent injury or significant scarring. Punitive damages are rare and require proof of gross negligence.
