Assessing Fault in an Accident

Published on: July 28, 2026 | Anthony Quackenbush, Esq.

When it comes to automobile accidents, Florida follows a no-fault insurance policy. This means that drivers are required to carry Personal Injury Protection (PIP) on their auto insurance, which covers drivers (and passengers and family) when they are involved in an accident. There are certain rules and limitations, but essentially, it will cover up to $10,000 in medical expenses and up to $10,000 of lost wages.

The PIP law was enacted to decrease lawsuits, and it has succeeded in that respect. However, what if your medical expenses and lost wages far exceed what PIP covers, and/or you have also experienced significant property damage? In Florida, you may sue for additional compensation after PIP, and that is where fault comes in.

How to Start a Lawsuit for a Defective Product

Published on: September 22, 2022 | Anthony Quackenbush, Esq.

Products sold to consumers are supposed to be safe. There are many safety standards that need to be met, but often, either they are not met or the standards are not sufficient. Many defective products are recalled each year, and many others are never recalled, but still cause harm.

Some defective products can cause burn and fire hazards, such as space heaters, electric blankets, lithium batteries, vaping equipment, and sprays such as PAM.

Defective gym and sports equipment can cause serious physical injury due to the collapse or tipping of an exercise machine, failure of a pulley or weight locks, or poor safety equipment such as helmets, pads, and masks.
