The increase in golf carts has inevitably led to accidents with regular vehicles, as they share the road. Because of the size difference between a car or SUV and a golf cart, these accidents usually result in serious injuries to the golf cart driver or passengers. In fact, Mackey Law Group has one such case now where a truck hit our client’s golf cart while she was sitting at an intersection and severely broke our client’s hand.

MLG obtained $200,000.00 for the motorcycle driver’s broken ribs, small facial scar, and broken toe. The motorcycle driver’s passenger, his wife, is still treating for various back and elbow injuries. Mackey Law Group’s fight for her will continue until she is rightfully compensated.

Florida is one of ten states that has Personal Injury Protection (PIP). This is coverage that is used in automobile policies.  PIP, also known as “no-fault” car insurance, will pay up to $10,000.00 of your medical bills and lost wages if you are the hurt policy holder in a car accident, no matter who was at fault.

If you find yourself involved in a motorcycle accident, you should immediately do a few things: obviously, make sure your injuries are being treated, take pictures of the scene, get copies of the police report, and call an experienced lawyer. And, never give a follow-up “recorded statement” to an insurance adjuster or agent.
