A car accident can change your life in seconds. One moment you’re driving home on I-295 or heading through downtown Jacksonville — the next you’re dealing with injuries, medical bills, lost income, and insurance adjusters asking questions you’re not ready to answer.
At The Law Offices of Ron Sholes, P.A., we don’t just handle car accident cases — we invest in them. We cover all costs upfront and prepare every case like it’s going to trial. Because we don’t get paid unless you win.
When you’re hurt, you deserve more than a quick settlement. You deserve a team that fights for you like family.
Insurance companies are not on your side. Their goal is simple: protect profits and minimize payouts.
After a car accident in Jacksonville, having the right legal team can make the difference between a low settlement and full compensation.
We handle recorded statements, claim negotiations, and adjuster communication to protect your Jacksonville car accident claim from low settlement offers.
We investigate the crash, secure evidence, review medical records, and document liability to strengthen your personal injury claim from day one.
We pursue damages for medical bills, lost wages, future treatment, and pain and suffering — not just the insurance company’s first offer.
Insurance companies take cases more seriously when they know your attorney is ready to litigate. We prepare every car accident case as if it’s going to court.
We represent drivers and passengers injured in all types of car accidents throughout Jacksonville and Northeast Florida. This includes rear-end collisions, head-on crashes, and T-bone (side-impact) accidents that often cause serious injuries.
Our firm also handles complex multi-vehicle pileups, hit-and-run accidents, uninsured and underinsured motorist claims, and rideshare crashes involving companies like Uber and Lyft.
Every car accident case is different. That’s why we investigate each crash thoroughly and build every injury claim from the ground up to pursue full and fair compensation.
If you’ve been involved in a crash:
Florida follows a no-fault insurance system, which means:
Your Personal Injury Protection (PIP) coverage pays initial medical bills
You must meet an injury threshold to step outside no-fault and pursue a liability claim
There are also strict deadlines for filing claims. Waiting too long can jeopardize your right to recover compensation.
Don’t guess about your rights. Let us evaluate your case for free.
Florida law sets strict deadlines for filing personal injury claims. If you wait too long, you could lose your right to recover compensation entirely. It’s best to speak with an attorney as soon as possible so evidence can be preserved and deadlines are protected.
Florida follows a modified comparative negligence rule. This means you may still recover compensation if you were partially at fault, but your recovery could be reduced by your percentage of responsibility. Insurance companies often try to exaggerate fault — we push back with evidence.
You are not required to give a recorded statement to the other driver’s insurance company. Adjusters are trained to ask questions that protect the insurance company — not you. It’s wise to consult with an attorney before speaking with them.
There are no upfront fees. We work on a contingency-fee basis, meaning we only get paid if we recover compensation for you. We also cover all case expenses upfront.
Depending on your case, you may be able to recover:
Every case is different, which is why we offer free case evaluations.
Some cases resolve in months. Others require litigation and take longer. The timeline depends on:
Severity of injuries
Insurance company cooperation
Whether a lawsuit becomes necessary
Our priority is maximizing your recovery — not rushing to settle.
Florida has a high number of uninsured drivers. If the at-fault driver does not have insurance — or doesn’t have enough coverage — you may still have options through your own uninsured/underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) coverage. These claims can be complex, and insurance companies may still try to minimize payouts. We review all available policies to identify every possible source of compensation.
Yes. Some injuries — including whiplash, soft tissue damage, and internal injuries — may not show symptoms immediately. Delaying medical treatment can not only harm your health but also hurt your claim. Insurance companies often argue that gaps in treatment mean your injuries aren’t serious. Seeking medical attention right away protects both your well-being and your case.
If you or a loved one has been injured in a car accident, don’t wait.
