Compensation Through Your Personal Injury Protection Policy
Depending upon your situation, you could have several options for securing compensation if you are hurt in a rear-end collision in Fort Lauderdale. You could get compensation through your personal injury protection (PIP) coverage. PIP coverage allows your insurance company to provide you with compensation for:
- Up to 80% of your medical expenses
- Up to 60% of your lost wages
Note also that you can only receive a maximum of $10,000 through your PIP policy. Non-emergency accidents could even be limited to $2,500. The rear-end collision accident lawyers at the Law Offices of Chalik & Chalik understand that this may not be enough to cover your losses after a wreck.

The Law Offices of Chalik & Chalik can work hard to prove that:
- The other driver was responsible for your accident
- The accident caused your injuries directly
Demonstrating these facts can help us negotiate with the other driver’s insurance company to secure you a fair settlement. We may even take your claim to court to ensure you get maximum compensation for all of your losses.
