A car accident can change your life in a moment. Then in the days that follow, medical bills start piling up, your car may be totaled, and the insurance company is already starting to minimize what they want to pay you for the damages.
The last thing you need is a law firm where you can’t reach your own attorney when you need to talk. At Von Roenn Law, you work directly with Zachary Von Roenn, a Jacksonville personal injury lawyer who has been helping accident victims for over 20 years.
When you call, you don’t just get a law office with the resources to fight big insurance. You get an attorney who knows your name, knows your case, and knows what it takes to win.
Car crashes happen every day in Northeast Florida, often due to negligence. Some of the most common causes include:
No matter how your accident happened, you deserve someone who will fight for fair compensation.
Car accidents can result in injuries that affect your health, career, and family. Common injuries include:
These injuries can last long after the crash and insurance companies will often try to downplay them to get a lower settlement amount. Settling for less than you need can leave you or your family on the hook for the weight of medical or psychological repair that is needed in the years to come.
When you’re recovering from an accident, the legal process shouldn’t be another burden you have to navigate on your own. You need someone who has seen it all and can walk you through every step of the way.
Here’s how we help:
Call 911, seek medical attention, and document everything with photos if possible. Avoid discussing fault and contact a car accident lawyer in Jacksonville, FL before speaking with the insurance company.
In Florida, you generally have two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury claim. Missing this deadline can prevent you from recovering compensation. However, each case is unique and you should contact Von Roenn Law to verify the applicable time frame to file your claim.
Yes — especially when injuries are involved. Insurance companies often try to minimize payouts. An experienced lawyer ensures your rights are protected and fights for maximum compensation.
It depends on your injury(s), medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and future care needs. Every case is unique, but a lawyer can help determine the fair value of your damages.
Some cases settle in a few months; others take longer if liability is disputed or injuries are severe. We’ll move your case forward as quickly as possible while protecting its value.
Florida follows a modified comparative negligence rule. You can still recover damages if you’re less than 50% at fault, but your compensation is reduced by your percentage of fault.
Florida requires drivers to carry Personal Injury Protection (PIP), which pays up to $10,000 of your medical expenses regardless of who is at fault. We pursue additional compensation for your injuries through the at-fault driver.
No. Insurance adjusters may use your statements against you. Direct all communication to your attorney to protect your claim.
If you have uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage (UM/UIM), your policy may cover your damages. If not, we’ll explore other options to recover compensation.
There are no upfront fees. We work on a contingency basis, which means we only get paid if we win your case.
Most insurers require you to report an accident “promptly,” which usually means within a few days. Failing to do so could jeopardize your coverage.
Rideshare accidents are more complex because multiple insurance policies may apply. We’ll determine liability and pursue the maximum recovery from all available sources.
Yes. Police reports aren’t the final word on fault. We investigate independently to uncover evidence that could shift liability and strengthen your case.
