Injured in a car accident? Our experienced attorneys have recovered over $50 million for accident victims. We fight for maximum compensation so you can focus on your recovery.
Car accidents are the leading cause of personal injury claims in Florida and Alabama. Whether you were rear-ended on I-10, involved in a multi-vehicle crash on Highway 98, or hit by a distracted driver on a local road, the aftermath can be overwhelming. Medical bills pile up, you may be unable to work, and insurance companies are focused on minimizing what they pay.
At Dean & Camper P.A., we have decades of experience representing car accident victims throughout the Gulf Coast. We handle every aspect of your claim -- from investigating the accident scene and gathering evidence to negotiating with insurance companies and taking your case to trial if necessary. Our goal is to secure the maximum compensation you deserve.
Our car accident attorneys represent victims in all types of motor vehicle collisions, including:
Understanding what caused your accident is critical for building a strong case. The most common causes of car accidents on the Gulf Coast include:
Car accidents can cause a wide range of injuries, from minor to catastrophic:
Florida: All car insurance policies issued in Florida are required to have at least $10,000 in Personal Injury Protection (PIP) or “no-fault” insurance benefits to pay for auto accident incurred medical bills and lost wages. PIP benefits are called “no-fault” benefits because you are entitled to the benefits no matter who was at fault for causing your accident. In Florida, unless your accident occurred in the scope of employment where workers' compensation applies, PIP no-fault benefits are always the primary insurer over any health insurance for auto accident related medical bills, meaning your health insurance is not responsible for any auto accident medical bills until after the $10,000 in PIP no-fault benefits have been exhausted. Contrary to what many insurance adjusters imply, however, simply because Florida is a no-fault state does not mean the driver and owner of the vehicle who cause the accident are not at fault for your injuries and damages. To the contrary, negligent drivers and the owners of vehicles driven by them in Florida can always be held liable for the injuries and damages they cause. And although you will receive a PIP “claim number” from your insurer once the accident is reported, it does not mean that anyone is filing any claim against you, or that you did anything wrong in the accident. It is simply to be provided to the medical providers you see for your auto accident related medical treatment. Florida’s statute of limitations for car accident injury claims is 2 years from the date of the accident. Florida is also unique in that, unlike nearly every other state in the country, Florida is one of only a few states that don’t require car owners to carry any bodily injury insurance coverage for their car. While most car owners do choose to carry bodily injury insurance coverage in Florida, it is not mandatory and is many times insufficient to cover the damages caused. This makes having uninsured or underinsured motorist (UM) coverage much more important in Florida than in other states in which bodily injury insurance coverage is not required. Florida follows a modified comparative negligence rule, meaning your compensation is reduced by your percentage of fault, and you cannot recover if you are more than 50% at fault.
Alabama: Alabama, unlike Florida, requires the drivers of cars to carry a minimum of $25,000 in bodily injury insurance coverage to cover car accident injuries they cause to others. Alabama, however, has one of the strictest contributory negligence rules in the nation. In theory, if you are found even 1% at fault for the accident, you may be barred from recovering any compensation in Alabama. Because of the harsh effect when a jury finds a plaintiff contributory negligent in causing the crash, Alabama juries often ignore the rule, choosing instead to account for such contributory negligence by reducing the plaintiff’s damages amount accordingly. Because of Alabama’s strict contributory negligence rule, having an experienced attorney is critical to protecting your claim. Alabama’s statute of limitations is 2 years from the date of the accident.

Answers from our car accident attorneys
A: Yes. If you have been in a car accident of any kind, you should call the police immediately, even if the accident initially appears to be minor. Often times injuries are not immediately apparent at the accident scene, but later worsen in the hours, days, and weeks after an accident. It is always better to call law enforcement and report the accident as soon as possible at the accident scene to prove that the accident occurred and to help show who was at fault in causing the accident.
A: You should record the following information as soon as possible after a car accident:
A: Immediately after an accident you should assess whether you have sustained any injuries. If your injuries involve any form of head trauma or "whiplash" forces to your head or neck areas, or if you are not sure of the extent of your injuries, you should immediately call 911 and go to the hospital for a further assessment by medical professionals. In Florida, if you don't get medical treatment within 14 days of your car accident, you lose $10,000 in auto insurance benefits (PIP), otherwise available to pay towards your medical expenses and lost wages.
A: Yes. You should take pictures of all vehicles involved in the accident as soon as you reasonably can — from the accident scene to the details of the damage to any of the vehicles. If your body shows physical signs of trauma, you should also take pictures of your injuries. The more record keeping the better. Recording this information will help you more accurately recall the details of your accident and will help document the facts and circumstances in cases where there may be a dispute as to what occurred.
A: Yes. After a car accident, you should call a car accident attorney experienced in helping injured victims with car accident and auto insurance claims. The consultation is completely free, and delaying in making the call can often times significantly affect your legal rights. At Dean & Camper, helping accident and injury victims with their personal injury claims is all we do. If you decide to pursue a personal injury claim through one of our injury lawyers, there would be no fees or costs to you unless you get a money recovery. Our attorneys are available any time, 24/7, for a free consultation.
A: The type and amount of compensation you may be entitled to as a car accident victim depend on the nature of the accident and the extent of your injuries and damages. If the car accident was caused by the carelessness or negligence of another, you may be able to recover compensation for:
Understanding your coverage is the first step in getting fair compensation:
When another driver causes your accident, you’ll likely file a claim with their insurance company (called a “third-party claim”). These insurers have no obligation to you and will do everything possible to minimize your payout.
Never do these things without a lawyer:
