Failure to obtain a timely evaluation or appropriate treatment for injuries sustained in a car accident may negate your ability to receive monetary compensation for any future medical bills, pain and suffering settlements, and compensation for work loss.
NOTE: The State of Florida requires that you be examined by a physician within 14 days of the motor vehicle accident to qualify for PIP (personal injury protection) of your automobile policy. Failure to do so will result in loss of your PIP coverage to pay for your medical claims.
