Personal Injury Lawyer Flagler Beach

Reach out to the personal injury attorneys at Chanfrau & Chanfrau if you have been injured in Flagler Beach, FL. Your initial consultation is free; if we take your case, you won't pay anything unless we win.
You Have Two Years to File a Claim Reach Out to Our Firm Serving Flagler Beach As Soon as Possible
Our personal injury attorneys serving Flagler Beach, FL, understand that the immediate aftermath of a car accident, slip and fall, or other personal injury is overwhelming. But as soon as you are able, it is important to reach out to a personal injury attorney who can begin gathering the evidence needed to help you achieve justice.
Though the previous limit was four years, for accidents occurring after March 24th, 2023, Florida has a two-year statute of limitations on personal injury cases (including wrongful death). That means you have two years from the date of the accident to take legal action. While that may seem like more than enough time to explore your legal options, you must remember that evidence is becoming more difficult to gather every day. Don't let memories fade or important evidence like photos, videos, and witness contact information become lost. Reach out to our personal injury lawyers today to request a free consultation. Though our law offices are located in Daytona Beach, DeLand, and Palm Coast, FL, our attorneys can meet you at home or your hospital room if you are unable to travel.

If your injury made traveling difficult or impossible, don't worry—we can meet you at your home, in the hospital, or virtually any location that is convenient for you. If we take your case, it's because we believe we can win, so you won't pay us a dime unless and until we secure a settlement or jury award for you.
Why You Need an Attorney On Your Case
Securing maximum compensation for a personal injury claim is no easy feat. Trying to do this without the assistance of a knowledgeable personal injury attorney puts you in jeopardy of not receiving the full amount you are due, or possibly losing your case and your chance of compensation entirely. Our personal injury lawyers have handled hundreds of cases involving accidents in Flagler County, FL, and surrounding areas.
Some of the reasons why you should hire an attorney include:
Everyone Can Afford Our Services
A personal injury can place a significant financial strain on victims and their families. That's why we offer free initial consultations and work on contingency. In other words, you won't pay us anything unless we succeed in securing a jury award or settlement for you. At that point, we will collect a percentage of your restitution as our fee, and you can use the remaining compensation to pay for your medical bills, physical therapy, counseling, and other needs.
We Have Secured Over $1 Billion In Compensation
When you find yourself in a desperate situation because of somebody else's careless actions, you need an attorney who gets results. Chanfrau & Chanfrau has a track record of robust verdicts and settlements totaling more than $1 billion, demonstrating their commitment to clients and their aptitude in negotiations and in the courtroom. If we take your case, it's because we are confident that we can achieve justice on your behalf. Many personal injury victims in Flagler Beach, FL, and beyond are thriving today because of our legal services. Let our lawyers put our skills and dedication to work for you.
Our Lawyers Gather Compelling Evidence
Relevant evidence will need to be gathered, including hospital records, witness accounts, and expert testimonies. The personal injury lawyers at our law firm will investigate all aspects of the events that led to your injuries so we can build a strong personal injury case and secure favorable compensation. If determining liability in your case requires a medical professional, crash reconstructionist, or engineer to help us determine who is responsible for your losses, we have relationships with experts who can help us build your case.
We Know How to Deal with Insurance Company Attorneys
Dealing with the defendant's insurance company and their lawyers can be difficult because they often start out with low settlement offers. The personal injury lawyers of Chanfrau & Chanfrau are litigators who aren't afraid to take a case to court if insurance companies don't agree to acceptable terms. In fact, we recommend that you do not speak to an insurance company yourself; instead, secure an attorney who can conduct these interactions on your behalf.

Flagler Beach is known for waterfront restaurants, parks, and fishing destinations, making it highly attractive to visitors. Though Flagler Beach residents and visitors can become victims of virtually any type of personal injury, there are some injuries that are more common than others. When the area sees a large influx of tourists during high season or events, accidents are more common. Our personal injury lawyers handle the following types of cases:
Driving down A1A is a great way to take in the nature preserves and sandy, white beaches. Unfortunately, this byway and other local roads experience motorcycle, car, and truck accidents caused by drivers who were not paying attention, speeding, or driving under the influence. These accidents can – and often do – cause injuries and death.
Many residents and visitors to Flagler Beach ride ATVs and golf carts on public streets and trails. Unfortunately, accidents involving ATVs and golf carts can be extremely damaging due to the lack of protection afforded by these vehicles. These accidents become much more common when inexperienced or intoxicated drivers are at the wheel.
The streets along Flagler Beach become more congested during high season, increasing the risk of pedestrian accidents. The risk is further increased when drivers and pedestrians are drinking. It is critically important that drivers and pedestrians obey all traffic laws when maneuvering the streets of Flagler Beach to avoid causing accidents and injuries.
Owners and property managers of the open-air cafes, restaurants, shops, and other establishments must follow reasonable safety measures. Debris on the ground, wet walkways, poor lighting, inadequate security, uneven walking surfaces, and defective railings can be considered negligence and grounds for a premises liability lawsuit.
Flagler Beach is a dog-friendly community; dogs are allowed on beaches and in other public areas, which can put people in close proximity to other people's pets. Dog owners have a duty to ensure their dogs do not injure others or cause property damage. In cases of serious dog bites, the owner may be financially responsible for resulting damages.
Road, housing, and business construction are common along the beach and across Flagler County. Unfortunately, if safety measures aren't implemented at construction sites, the risk of accidents increases. Construction accidents may involve falls, heavy equipment, motor vehicle accidents, caught-between accidents, and more.
