Title XXXVII

New Florida PIP Law Could Make it Tougher for Injured People to Receive Compensation

By Orlando Personal Injury Attorney on December 28, 2012

Revisions to a current law scheduled to go into effect on Jan. 1, 2013, have James O. Cunningham and other Orlando personal injury lawyers very concerned about the impact they could have on injured people getting the fair and just compensation they deserve from negligent drivers.
