Car Accidents in Miami

The number of car accidents in Miami and the Miami-Dade area has been on the rise for years. With a population of nearly 3 million residents, Miami-Dade is the seventh-most populous county in the country and the most-populous within Florida. As a result of this, there are hundreds of thousands of drivers on the roadways in and around Miami each and every day, thus increasing the likelihood of a car accident. In recent years, the Miami area has seen more than 60,000 car accidents each year. These crashes have led to numerous injuries and hundreds of fatalities.

If you or a loved one has been hurt in a Miami car accident, you could be entitled to compensation. Due to the many negligent drivers in the Miami area, there is a good chance that the crash was not your fault.
