Who's At Fault?
Put Our Crystal River Auto Accident Injury Lawyers On the Case!
Florida is a no-fault state, which means every driver must carry personal injury protection (PIP) coverage on their car insurance policy. This helps cover medical expenses and lost wages, regardless of who was at fault. No-fault was intended to reduce auto insurance premiums by reducing the number of automobile accident cases in the courts, but it has many detractors, and it often seems on the verge of repeal.
In the meantime, regardless of fault, your first step is to speak with your PIP insurance provider. But what happens when your no-fault insurance policy limit (typically $10,000) is not enough to cover your injuries? At that time, you can file a third-party claim against the at-fault driver's insurance. If you've been severely or permanently injured, you also can file a personal injury case against the negligent driver. That's where we come in.
When you choose Lowman Law Firm for your Crystal River personal injury attorney or wrongful death attorney, we will:
- Meet with you at no cost to discuss your options and to understand how your injury occurred.
- File all necessary paperwork to help you get the compensation you deserve.
- Keep in contact with you during your case, providing your attorney's cell phone number so you can reach out directly anytime.
- Obtain all documentation available to support your injury case including medical bills and physician testimony.
- Collect any available evidence related to your accident, including any proof that the other party is at fault when possible.
- Defend your rights throughout the legal process, and we do not collect a fee unless you win!

Tanya
Automobile Accident Case
Dealing with insurance companies is not a pleasant experience and I wanted a professional on my side. I met with Joe Lowman who explained the process to me and put me at ease with me realizing that I had a competent, capable and experienced team fighting for me. They navigated through getting my car fixed and countless medical appointments and kept me informed as things progressed. Joe Hill was awesome at taking the facts, communicating with the doctors offices and insurance companies and getting the best outcome possible. The outcome was greater than I thought was possible. This would not have been possible without the awesome work, skills and professionalism of Joe Hill. He is great and I will always recommend Lowman Law Firm. You guys are fantastic!
