Car Accident Lawyer in West Palm Beach
West Palm Beach and Palm Beach County sit at one of Florida’s most dangerous road intersections. I-95 through Palm Beach County carries some of the highest traffic volumes in the state, with frequent rear-end collisions, lane-change crashes, and intersection accidents in neighborhoods like Northwood, Lake Worth Beach, and Riviera Beach. Southern Boulevard, Okeechobee Boulevard, and Military Trail are equally congested and see regular crashes at busy intersections throughout the day.
If you were injured in a car accident in West Palm Beach, Florida’s no-fault insurance system requires you to first seek benefits through your own PIP (Personal Injury Protection) coverage. However, when injuries are serious, permanent, or result in significant scarring, you have the right to step outside no-fault and pursue a full claim against the at-fault driver. Our attorneys know how to navigate this system and push back against insurance adjusters who try to minimize your payout.
Truck Accident Attorney Serving Palm Beach County
West Palm Beach is a growing commercial hub. The Florida Turnpike and I-95 generate constant commercial truck traffic connecting Palm Beach County to Miami-Dade and Broward. Port of Palm Beach adds container and cargo shipments that put heavy 18-wheelers on local roads around the clock. Collisions with commercial trucks often cause catastrophic injuries, including spinal cord damage, traumatic brain injuries, and multiple fractures. Our truck accident lawyers investigate the trucking company’s maintenance records, driver logs, and black box data to build the strongest possible case for you.
Motorcycle, Pedestrian, and Bicycle Accidents
Palm Beach County’s warm climate and extensive trail network make it a hotspot for motorcyclists, cyclists, and pedestrians. The Palm Beach Lake Trail, Flagler Drive along the Intracoastal Waterway, and the Greenway system attract thousands of riders and walkers year-round. Unfortunately, distracted and negligent drivers regularly put these vulnerable road users at serious risk. We represent victims of motorcycle accidents, pedestrian accidents, and bicycle accidents throughout Palm Beach County, including West Palm Beach, Boca Raton, Delray Beach, Boynton Beach, and Wellington. Injuries in these cases tend to be severe because riders and pedestrians have virtually no protection upon impact.
Additional Practice Areas We Handle in West Palm Beach
- Traumatic Brain Injuries: TBI cases require specialized medical testimony. We work with neurologists and rehabilitation experts to document the full extent of your injury and its long-term impact on your life and livelihood.
- Medical Malpractice: Surgical errors, misdiagnosis, and medication mistakes at St. Mary’s Medical Center, Good Samaritan Medical Center, and other Palm Beach County facilities can have devastating consequences. We hold healthcare providers accountable for falling below the standard of care.
- Premises Liability: Slip and fall injuries at West Palm Beach hotels, shopping centers like The Square, and restaurants along Clematis Street. Property owners have a legal duty to maintain safe conditions for visitors, and we fight to enforce that duty.
- Wrongful Death: When negligence takes a life, surviving family members have the right to seek compensation for funeral expenses, lost income, and loss of companionship. We handle these sensitive cases with the care your family deserves.
- Dog Bites: Florida’s strict liability statute means dog owners are responsible for bite injuries regardless of the animal’s prior behavior. We help victims recover full compensation for medical treatment and emotional trauma.
- Workers’ Compensation: Injured on the job at a Palm Beach County construction site, hotel, or healthcare facility? We help you secure the benefits you are owed under Florida workers’ compensation law.
- Boating Accidents: Palm Beach County has hundreds of miles of waterways, the Intracoastal Waterway, and Atlantic Ocean access. Boating accidents on Lake Worth Lagoon, the North Palm Beach waterway, and offshore waters can result in serious injuries. Our team handles these complex maritime cases.
“I Was You, Now I Represent You!” – Attorney Katie Miller
Our CEO and lead attorney, Katie Miller, became a personal injury lawyer because she lived through a devastating accident herself. On January 19, 2016, while driving home from court, a distracted driver slammed into her vehicle, causing injuries that changed her life forever. That experience gave her something most lawyers simply do not have: a firsthand understanding of what accident victims go through, the pain, the fear, the insurance company tactics, and the long road to recovery.
With over 15 years of legal experience, Katie spent seven years as an Associate Attorney at the Law Offices of Dan Newlin before founding Injury LawStars. She holds a Juris Doctorate from New England Law in Boston and brings a fierce determination to every case. When Katie says “I was you, now I represent you,” she means it. She has sat in the hospital bed. She has argued with the insurance adjuster. She has felt the frustration. That is why she fights so hard for every client in West Palm Beach and across Palm Beach County.

“I reached out to Attorney Katie Miller looking for help with my injury case. All the other attorneys I reached out to gave me the slimy lawyer vibe. Not Attorney Miller. She is warm, compassionate, and empathetic. Attorney Miller made the process so accessible for me and advocated for my interest. I got a great result and am forever thankful.”

Frequently Asked Questions About Personal Injury Claims in West Palm Beach
How much does it cost to hire a personal injury lawyer in West Palm Beach?
At Injury LawStars, there is no upfront cost. We work on a contingency fee basis, which means you only pay legal fees if we successfully recover compensation for you. During your free consultation, we will explain the fee structure in full so there are no surprises.
What compensation can I recover after a car accident in West Palm Beach?
Depending on the circumstances of your accident, you may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses (past and future), lost wages, loss of earning capacity, property damage, pain and suffering, and emotional distress. In cases involving gross negligence or drunk driving, punitive damages may also be available. Our attorneys evaluate every potential source of recovery to maximize your claim.
How long do I have to file a personal injury lawsuit in Florida?
Florida’s statute of limitations for most personal injury claims is two years from the date of the accident, following the 2023 tort reform changes. Medical malpractice cases and claims against government entities may have different deadlines. Waiting too long can permanently bar you from recovering compensation, so it is important to consult with an attorney promptly after your accident.
What should I do immediately after an accident in West Palm Beach?
First, seek medical attention even if you feel fine, as some injuries have delayed symptoms. Call 911 to file a police report. Document the scene with photos and collect contact information from witnesses. Do not give recorded statements to the other driver’s insurance company before speaking with a lawyer. Then contact Injury LawStars for a free case evaluation.
Do I need a lawyer if the insurance company already made me an offer?
Insurance companies routinely offer lowball settlements hoping you will accept before you understand the full value of your claim. An experienced personal injury lawyer can evaluate whether the offer fairly covers your medical bills, lost income, and pain and suffering. In most cases, having legal representation results in a significantly higher recovery.
What if the accident happened on I-95 or the Florida Turnpike in Palm Beach County?
Accidents on Florida’s major interstates often involve multiple parties, commercial vehicles, and complex liability questions. Our attorneys are experienced handling high-speed freeway crashes and know how to investigate these cases thoroughly, including obtaining traffic camera footage, crash reports from FHP, and records from the Florida Department of Transportation.
