When a car accident shatters your life or the life of someone you love, the road to recovery can feel long and uncertain. The physical injuries, emotional toll, and financial strain often require more than just medical attention—they demand fierce legal advocacy.
At the Law Office of Mark Wolin, we bring over 35 years of experience representing car accident victims throughout South Florida. Over the years, we have successfully handled hundreds of cases on behalf of clients injured on the road, including injuries resulting from crashes involving cars, SUVs, trucks, motorcycles, buses, ATVs, bicycles, and pedestrians. Whether your accident was caused by negligence, reckless driving, or drunk driving, our firm is here to fight for your rights and secure the compensation you deserve.
A car accident injury refers to any harm sustained due to a collision or incident involving a vehicle. These injuries can range from minor cuts and bruises to severe trauma like broken bones, spinal damage, or brain injuries, often leading to long-term or permanent consequences.
Even a seemingly minor crash can result in hidden injuries that affect your ability to work, enjoy life, or care for yourself.
Car accidents can occur in countless ways. At the Law Office of Mark Wolin, we’ve seen the following as frequent causes:
Whether it’s a car accident, motorcycle accident, or truck accident, the stakes always go up when drunk driving causes the injuries. These are often the most serious and poignant cases of all. Because the injuries are often extremely serious, and the fault on the part of the drunk driver is often wanton. Florida courts and juries consider drunk driving a grave wrong—so wrong that if you show the injuries resulted from drunk driving, the injured party may be entitled to punitive damages.
Car accident injuries can impact every facet of your life. Some symptoms appear immediately, while others emerge days or weeks later. Recognizing the signs and seeking help is critical.
Car accident cases are complex. Insurance companies often deny claims, undervalue injuries, or shift blame to avoid paying what’s fair. Without expert legal support, you risk settling for less than you need for medical bills, lost wages, and recovery.
At Mark Wolin’s Law Office, We Will:
Our background in journalism and trial law equips us to uncover key details and present powerful cases.
The worth of a car accident claim depends on injury severity, future care needs, life and work impacts, and insurance coverage.
Beyond compensatory damages—which cover medical bills, lost income, and pain—punitive damages may apply in drunk driving cases. These are awarded to punish the wrongdoer and set an example. Insurance companies don’t cover punitive damages, as willful, wanton, or reckless acts aren’t insurable. However, the threat of a big verdict often pushes insurers to settle to protect their insured drunk driver. If you or a loved one are seriously injured by a drunk driver, we consider these cases among the most important—and it’s an honor to fight for your rights.
In Florida, the statute of limitations for most personal injury cases, including car accidents, is two years from the accident date (per 2023 legal updates). Exceptions may apply if injuries weren’t immediately evident or a government entity is involved. Acting quickly preserves your right to compensation.
Our approach to car accident claims is meticulous, determined, and compassionate. Every client’s story fuels a tailored legal strategy.
With decades of trial experience and investigative journalism skills, Mark Wolin brings tenacity and insight to every car accident case. His ability to spot overlooked evidence can tip the scales.
We treat our clients like family and fight as if our own future is at stake—because for car accident victims, it often is.
A car accident can alter your life in an instant—but with the right legal team, you can secure the resources to move forward. Mark Wolin is here to stand by you every step of the way.

How do I know if I have a car accident claim?
If your injury was caused by someone else’s negligence—like speeding or drunk driving—you likely have a claim. A consultation can confirm.
Can I file a claim for someone else?
Yes. If a loved one is incapacitated or unable to file, a guardian or family member can pursue it for them.
What evidence proves a car accident injury?
Medical records, crash reports, photos, witness testimony, and expert analysis are critical.
How long does a car accident case take?
Cases can take months to years, depending on complexity, injury severity, and trial needs.
Will I need to go to court?
Many cases settle, but we’re prepared to litigate if the offer isn’t just.
What if I had a prior injury?
Pre-existing conditions don’t disqualify you. If the accident worsened them, you may still recover damages.
How much is my car accident case worth?
Value varies by injury extent, medical costs, lost income, and punitive damages potential. A case review provides clarity.
Guy walks into a lawyer’s office. A handsome U.S. Coast Guardsman, he sustained a brain injury in a night-time crash with a truck on the Turnpike that he cannot remember because of amnesia resulting from injuries sustained in the crash.
There are no other known witnesses, other than the truck driver who claims to have been rear ended. In the meantime, our client’s career in the Coast Guard is over. He’s been diagnosed with a traumatic brain injury and is no longer fit for duty. Can I help him?
So begins a case that went on for four years, pitting our firm against five leading Florida defense firms and four separate defendants including the truck driver, the trucking company, the construction company that the driver was hauling for and our client’s auto insurer.
Complex truck regulations were researched. Truck safety and human factors experts were brought in. Obtaining the 911 tapes, we discovered a previously unidentified witness who provided key information about the accident. The scene, the vehicles, weather and lighting conditions were analyzed. Evidence was compiled piece by piece like a mosaic.
The picture that emerged at the end told a story much different than the one given by the truck driver, who, we discovered, had lied on his job application to cover up a bad driving record. Prior to trial, the case resulted in a confidential settlement reached after a day-long mediation. After a long, arduous ordeal, and months of therapies, our client is successfully pursing a new career, and a new life.
Proving an injury usually involves getting an evaluation from the client’s doctors. But what if your client refuses to go to the doctor? Or even admit that she’s hurt? And doesn’t even remember the car accident that put her in the hospital for three weeks with a serious brain injury?
This was the predicament after a Sunny Isles Beach grandmother was knocked to the ground when a careless driver ran into the grocery cart which she was pushing as she crossed the street in Aventura. Bleeding profusely, and rushed to the intensive care unit at the nearest trauma center, tests revealed bleeding in several areas of the brain. After being transferred to a rehabilitation hospital, she discharged herself against doctor’s orders.
Suffering with memory problems, personality changes and cognitive deficits, our client stubbornly refused to seek medical attention. Fortunately, thanks to deep relationships forged over years of experience, we were able to actually bring top physicians and experts to her, including a board certified neurologist, who went to her apartment and interviewed and examined her there with great kindness and gentility. The client’s family, who lives in another state, was more than grateful.
A confidential six figure settlement was reached consisting of the entire policy limits of the opposing driver’s insurance coverage. The recovery will go far towards helping our client pay for attendant care and other specialized needs to provide her comfort in the remaining years of her life.
Our client, Ms. Marion, age 92, was a belted, back seat passenger in a rental car being driven by her son that was struck by another vehicle driven by an elderly man making a left turn onto a state highway without the right of way.
Both of Ms Marion’s two prosthetic knees were fractured in the accident, with operations needed on both legs. Unfortunately, one leg remained permanently out of alignment. A confidential six-figure settlement reached with the other driver’s insurance company has provided Ms. Marion with substantial comfort and security to help offset the lasting effects of her serious injury. Thanks to careful investigation and preparation, the settlement was obtained without even having to file a lawsuit.
