Miami Lakes Road Hazards
Each year, road hazards such as missing construction site signs, debris on the roads, and wheel ruts cause thousands of car collisions in Miami Lakes and the surrounding South Florida area.

The Challenges of Road Hazard Cases in Miami LakesRoad hazard cases are often very difficult for a number of reasons. One of the challenges is that these situations often involve multiple liable parties, including government authorities (who are usually responsible for the roads). Government entities are strongly protected by powerful attorneys and have lots of resources – paid by your tax dollars – to put towards their defense. In many cases, liable parties will try to pass the blame to the injured party or to someone else.
Road hazard cases also often involve single car accidents. This means that there is no second at-fault driver and insurance company to pursue. It becomes more important to seek out liable parties in these cases to secure fair compensation for any injuries you may have sustained. Unfortunately, in single vehicle cases there is sometimes the tendency to blame the injured driver, even if the crash was not their fault. It often takes a very skilled attorney to uncover what really happened and to prove the causes of the accident before a court.
