Auto Accident Lawyer Serving Tampa, St Petersburg, Clearwater, Bradenton, Lakeland, Brandon & Beyond – What is a Guest Statute?

If you have been involved in an auto accident, an auto accident lawyer from Kennedy Law Group in Tampa can assist you in a variety of ways. Following the accident, a lawyer can help determine whether you have any valid claims for compensation, and also whether anybody else possibly has any claims against YOU. Unlike a handful of other states, Florida does not have a “guest statute” that prevents passengers from recovering money damages from the driver and/or owner of the vehicle in the event of an accident. Here, an injured passenger does have a right to seek compensation from the driver/owner, which is something an auto accident lawyer from our firm can look into. Other parties may have a valid claim as well, depending on the circumstances of the accident.

A lawyer from Kennedy Law Group can assume responsibility for handling all of the technical details of your case. This will give you more time to recover from any injuries you have sustained, and to focus on other important things such as caring for your family, your job, or your education.

To speak to an auto accident lawyer in person about your case, contact Kennedy Law Group.
