If I was in an auto accident, what do I need to do?
Call our office and set up an appointment after you contact your insurance company and advise them of the situation. They will give you a case number, claims adjuster name and number. Please bring this information with you on your first visit. Also, if you have retained an attorney, bring the attorney name, firm name and phone/fax numbers. If you haven’t retained these services, we may be able to give suggestions in this area. There is a form on this website you can download and fill out with the information which is needed. This will make it easier and less time consuming on your initial visit.
After your initial appointments, the doctor will decide if you have a “EMC”. This is a “Emergency Medical Condition”. This is the ability of the doctor to extend your coverage from the normal $2,500 to $10,000 worth of coverage. Remember, this coverage is by your auto insurance, not medical insurance. Every insurance policy in the state of Florida must have this coverage. This determination is made by extent of injuries and type of injuries.
