Palaidis Law Justice for the injured and accused.

Your car may have recorded what happened in a crash.

Many modern vehicles have an Event Data Recorder, or EDR, sometimes called a car’s “black box.”

After a serious Florida car crash, that data may show:
• Speed
• Braking
• Impact force
• Seatbelt use
• Airbag deployment

That evidence can become critical when fault is disputed.

Watch the full video on the Palaidis Law YouTube channel to learn what EDRs record and why they matter in Florida injury cases.

Broward County is getting serious about jury-duty no-shows.

The 17th Judicial Circuit announced that, beginning in June 2026, judges may begin issuing show-cause orders to people who fail to appear for jury duty.

That means if you skip your summons, you may be ordered to appear before a judge and explain why you should not be held in contempt of court.

There may be a second chance to fix it by rescheduling jury service within 60 days. But if you ignore that too, you could face a fine, contempt, and potentially jail time.

Ignored a jury summons in Florida before and nothing happened? That may be changing.

Starting in June 2026, Broward County is expected to begin enforcing jury-duty no-show penalties more seriously, including possible show-cause orders, fines, contempt findings, and other consequences.

A jury summons is not junk mail. If you receive one, show up, properly reschedule, or request an excusal through the court’s process.

In Florida, partial fault can seriously affect your injury case.

Example:
If your damages are $100,000 and a jury finds you 30% at fault, your recovery is reduced to $70,000.

But if you’re found more than 50% at fault by a jury, you recover nothing.

That means: 51% fault = $0 recovery.

Florida’s comparative negligence law changed in 2023, and this rule can make or break a case.

Being partially at fault does NOT automatically mean you lose your case in Florida.

Insurance companies want people to think:
“If you made any mistake, you have no claim.”

That’s not how comparative negligence works.

The real question is not:
“Were you perfect?”
It’s:
“What percentage of fault belongs to each person?”

But if a jury finds you're 51% at fault or more, you could be out.

Do you think all there is to a personal injury case is a demand letter and a lawsuit? Not quite.

Denied or lowballed after a Florida crash? Don’t assume that’s your case value.

It usually means the insurance company is doing what it’s built to do—
pay as little as possible, as late as possible.

A denial isn’t the final word.
A low offer isn’t your case value.

It’s just their starting position.

Most people think an injury case is just about medical bills. It’s not.

The real value is what the injury does to your life—
pain, limitations, stress, and loss of enjoyment.

Those are non-economic damages, and they matter just as much as the bills.

If you’re only focusing on expenses, you’re missing the biggest part of your case.

04/22/2026

You were hurt in a Florida crash—so you can get pain and suffering, right?

Not automatically.

Florida is a no-fault state, which means your PIP insurance pays first for medical bills and lost wages. But PIP does not cover pain and suffering.

To recover that, you have to meet Florida’s permanent injury threshold—and most people don’t realize that until it’s too late.

Watch the full breakdown on our YouTube channel to understand how this affects your case.

In the days the follow what you thought was a minor crash, you begin feeling pain in your neck and back. Headaches appear. The insurance company for the driver that hit you keeps calling. It’s time to lawyer up.
