PIP (Personal Injury Protection) Suits

Florida is a no-fault state, meaning that drivers must have Personal Injury Protection (PIP) insurance for their vehicles. In the event of a traffic accident, the insurance provider is expected to pay for medical costs and lost income. Medical providers rely on PIP money to pay for their costs in treating head injury patients, fractures, and other serious injuries caused by traffic accidents in Florida. In some cases, medical professionals and clinics have a challenging time recovering personal injury protection benefits from insurers. Bills may be denied or an insurance provider may argue that charges for treatment are not justified.

When this happens, medical providers may seek a PIP lawsuit. This type of legal action is filed by an attorney on behalf of a clinic or medical professional against an insurance provider. Medical providers can pursue not only the PIP benefits they are entitled to, but also the legal fees associated with pursuing the claim as well as possible penalties and interest associated with the delay in benefits.

PIP Suits are Different From Personal Injury Claims

A PIP suit is very different from a personal injury lawsuit. Whereas a personal injury legal claim involves tort law, a PIP lawsuit involves contract law. While a personal injury claim has a four year statute of limitations, the statute of limitations for a PIP lawsuit is five years. There are other significant differences as well, which is one reason why many personal injury attorneys in Miami and Florida do not take on PIP claims. The Flaxman Law Group has assisted clients with both types of cases.
