Your Case. Your Priorities. Your Strategy.
A strategy tailored to the client We curate each case around the client’s desired outcome and immediate needs—not a predetermined law-firm process.
A Faster Resolution Does Not Have to Mean a Careless Settlement When a client wants a prompt settlement, we move the claim forward efficiently while working to maximize the recovery available within the client’s desired timeframe.
No delay on coverage information While insurers have 30 days to provide an attested policy disclosure, many carriers provide a verbal disclosure within 24 to 48 hours after receiving a letter of representation. Our duty runs to the client, no one else.
No pressure to accept the first offer A faster resolution should not mean an unprepared claim or a careless settlement.
Prepared to litigate if shortchanged If the insurance company refuses to make a reasonable offer, we are happy to hold them accountable and present your case to a jury.
Some claims may resolve quickly Depending on liability, available insurance, medical treatment, and the client’s instructions, certain claims may resolve in approximately 90 days or less. Every case is different, and no particular timeline can be guaranteed.

Frequently Asked Questions About Hollywood Personal Injury Claims
How do I know whether I have a personal injury case—and whether I need a lawyer?
You may have a personal injury claim if another person or business acted negligently and caused your injuries or financial losses. Speaking with a lawyer becomes especially important when injuries require treatment, fault is disputed, work is missed, insurance coverage is uncertain, or an insurer requests a recorded statement or release. Dan offers a free consultation to evaluate the evidence, potentially responsible parties, available insurance, and applicable deadlines.
Can I recover compensation if I may have been partly at fault?
Possibly. In many Florida negligence cases, compensation is reduced according to the injured person’s percentage of fault. A person found more than 50% responsible generally cannot recover damages, although different rules and exceptions may apply to particular claims. Do not assume that an insurance company’s allegation—or even an initial accident report—determines legal responsibility. The evidence should be investigated before fault and available recovery are evaluated. Florida Statute § 768.81.
What should I do after an accident in Florida?
Obtain necessary medical care, report the accident, exchange identifying and insurance information, photograph the scene and injuries, and preserve witness information and available video. Avoid guessing about fault or signing an insurance release before understanding its effect. Evidence such as surveillance footage, vehicle data, incident reports, and witness accounts can disappear quickly and should be identified and preserved promptly.
What happens during a free consultation, and what should I bring?
You will speak directly with Dan about what happened, your injuries, medical treatment, available evidence, insurance coverage, and immediate concerns. No special preparation is required. If available, bring or send photographs, accident or incident reports, insurance information, medical records, witness information, and communications from insurance companies. Dan will explain potential legal options, important deadlines, and practical next steps. The consultation is free and does not require you to hire the firm. If representation is offered, the fee agreement and responsibility for potential case costs will be explained before you decide.
If I hire the firm, will I work directly with the attorney handling my case?
Yes. Dan personally handles every personal injury case the firm accepts—from the initial consultation and investigation through settlement negotiations, litigation, and trial. Clients receive direct attorney guidance instead of having the case managed primarily by intake personnel or case managers.
How much does a Hollywood personal injury lawyer cost?
Daniel B Reinfeld, PA offers free consultations and handles accepted personal injury cases on a contingency-fee basis. There is no upfront attorney’s fee, and no attorney’s fee is owed unless compensation is recovered. The percentage fee, potential case costs, and the client’s rights are explained in a written agreement before representation begins. Florida contingency-fee arrangements are governed by applicable Florida Bar rules.
How much could my personal injury case be worth?
There is no reliable average settlement or automatic formula. Potential value depends on the strength of the liability evidence, injury severity, medical evidence, permanent impairment, past and future treatment, lost income, diminished earning ability, pain and suffering, available insurance, and the credibility of the supporting evidence. A substantial injury does not guarantee a substantial recovery when responsibility or collectible insurance coverage is limited. A meaningful evaluation requires reviewing the particular facts and documentation.
What compensation can I recover in a Florida personal injury case?
Depending on the claim, compensation may include medical expenses, future medical care, lost income, diminished earning capacity, property damage, pain and suffering, disability, disfigurement, and loss of enjoyment of life. Not every category is available in every case. Recoverable damages depend on the injuries, supporting evidence, applicable law, available insurance, and the relationship between the accident and each claimed loss.
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Florida?
Florida generally provides two years to file an action founded on negligence, but different deadlines and presuit requirements can apply depending on the claim, defendant, accident date, and injured person. Wrongful-death claims, medical-malpractice cases, claims against government entities, and other matters may involve different requirements. Because evidence can disappear long before the filing deadline, a potential claim should be reviewed promptly. Florida Statute § 95.11
How long does a personal injury case take?
The timeline depends on the injuries, duration of medical treatment, clarity of responsibility, available insurance, supporting evidence, client objectives, and whether litigation becomes necessary. Some well-documented claims may resolve in approximately 90 days or less when the client prioritizes speed and the circumstances permit. More complicated claims can take substantially longer. A faster resolution should not require accepting an uninformed or inadequately supported settlement.
Why is prompt medical care important after an accident?
Prompt medical attention protects your health and creates a record of your symptoms, diagnosis, and recommended treatment. After a motor-vehicle accident, eligibility for Florida PIP benefits generally requires initial medical services and care within 14 days, although available benefits depend on the policy and circumstances. Treatment decisions should be made with qualified medical providers—not simply for a legal claim. Florida Statute § 627.736
What happens if the at-fault driver has no insurance or leaves the scene?
A claim may still be available through uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage, another household policy, applicable PIP benefits, a commercial or employer policy, the vehicle owner, or another legally responsible party. Hit-and-run accidents can also implicate uninsured-motorist coverage. Available coverage should be determined from the actual policies and facts rather than assumptions made at the scene. Dan investigates every potentially applicable source of insurance and recovery.
Will my personal injury case settle or go to trial?
Most personal injury claims resolve through settlement rather than trial, but the appropriate strategy depends on the evidence, injuries, insurance coverage, available offer, and the client’s goals. Dan prepares accepted cases for negotiation, litigation, or trial and explains the available options. The client—not the insurance company or the law firm—decides whether to accept a settlement offer or continue pursuing the case.
