Yes restitution should be ordered in the criminal case, this will probably not be worth much as the other attorney has pointed out.
If the person has uninsured motorist coverage you could make a claim for this to the insurance company. In Florida uninsured motorist coverage is required unless the preson signs a rejection notice.
Let me know if I can with this claim, or help find out if the person has this coverage.
good luck,

Yes, but, of course, the convict would have to have insurance or the money to pay.
