Serving Injury Victims in Fort Lauderdale and South Florida

Fort Lauderdale and Broward County sit at the center of one of Florida's most dangerous traffic environments. I-95, I-595, and US-1 (Federal Highway) carry massive volumes of commuter and tourist traffic through the county daily. The I-95/I-595 interchange in Davie and the I-95 corridor through downtown Fort Lauderdale are among the most crash-prone stretches of highway in South Florida, generating thousands of serious injury claims every year.

Florida's no-fault insurance system requires all drivers to carry Personal Injury Protection (PIP) coverage, but PIP benefits are limited to $10,000 and must be accessed within 14 days of the accident. When injuries are serious, victims must step outside the no-fault system and pursue a liability claim against the at-fault driver. Mark Link is licensed in Florida and understands exactly when and how to make that transition.

Broward County Circuit Court in Fort Lauderdale handles major personal injury litigation for the county. Mark Link has the trial experience and Florida-specific legal knowledge to take your case from investigation through verdict if necessary. Whether your accident occurred on I-95, Las Olas Boulevard, Sunrise Boulevard, or A1A, Mark Link Law is prepared to fight for full compensation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Fort Lauderdale Personal Injury Questions

Which court handles personal injury lawsuits in Fort Lauderdale?

Personal injury cases in Fort Lauderdale are filed in Broward County Circuit Court, located in downtown Fort Lauderdale. Claims under $30,000 may be filed in Broward County Court. Mark Link is familiar with Broward County courts and local litigation procedures.

What is Florida's 14-day rule and how does it affect my claim?

Florida law requires accident victims to seek medical treatment within 14 days of the accident to access PIP benefits. If you wait longer than 14 days, you forfeit up to $10,000 in no-fault coverage. See a doctor immediately after any accident, even if you feel fine — symptoms often appear days later.

How does Florida's HB 837 affect my personal injury case?

Florida's 2023 tort reform (HB 837) changed the comparative fault threshold from pure comparative fault to modified comparative fault. You can only recover damages if you are less than 51% at fault. The law also changed how medical bills are calculated. Mark Link stays current on all HB 837 implications.

Can I sue for a boating accident in Fort Lauderdale?

Yes. Boating accident victims in Fort Lauderdale and Broward County can pursue negligence claims against boat operators, vessel owners, and marina operators. Florida's waterways are heavily used, and boating under the influence is a serious problem. Mark Link handles all waterway injury claims.
