Founded in 1925, Hollywood is a city of 141,000 located in Broward County Florida – along some six miles of ocean coastline. Part of the Miami-Fort Lauderdale metro area and its 5.5 million residents, Hollywood is at the center of vacation paradise.
Hollywood Personal Injury Attorney Richard Ansara handles personal injury and wrongful death matters throughout Broward, including:
For most of us, a serious or fatal car accident will be among the most traumatic events of our lives. Unfortunately, the legal, medical and financial consequences can be compounded for those who fail to consult experienced legal counsel.
The Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles reports more than 600 crashes a day occur in the Sunshine State. Some 2,500 motorists are killed each year and 200,000 are injured. The U.S. Department of Transportation reports Florida, California and Texas are consistently the deadliest states in the nation.
A Hollywood car accident attorney should always be called to handle cases involving injury accidents. Even in cases where the accident does not appear to be severe, medical complications can result in significant out-of-pocket expense, to say nothing of lost wages.
At The Ansara Law Firm, we put significant focus on representing those who have been injured or killed in a bicycle or pedestrian accident. Those searching for a bicycle or pedestrian accident lawyer in Hollywood should ask about their attorney’s qualifications and experience.
Richard Ansara understands the issues. These accidents typically involve very serious injuries. Cycling accidents, in particular, most often involve middle-aged men, which in turn can quickly put family finances in trouble.
In an increasing number of cases, distraction is to blame for causing bicycle and pedestrian accidents. In Broward County, these accident claim more than 100 lives each year and injure more than 3,500.
Motorcycle accidents are another area of concern in South Florida -- given Florida’s year-around riding weather.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reports more than 4,000 riders are killed each year. Florida is often the deadliest state in the nation, followed by Texas and California. Like bicycle and pedestrian accidents, a motorcycle accident attorney in Hollywood understands these cases are typically caused by other drivers; failure to yield and turning left in front of a motorcycle is the most common accident scenario. The gorgeous South Florida riding weather means motorists must remain vigilant.
