Legal Question in Personal Injury in Florida

Getting hit in a shopping cart is a tough claim. First, you have to have permanent injuries to justify any type of claim. Second, you have to have all the information about the individual. Third, that individual has to have some kind of liability coverage. You say hew as in a vehicle, so this would likely be his auto insurance. All the stars have to align to make this case worthwhile. Seek legal help with all your facts.

It is not clear what all the circumstances are. If you and your girls were in a designated crosswalk and the vehicle simply failed to yield the right of way to you as pedestrians, then you would certainly have a claim for any medical bills not covered by your own no-fault insurance (if any). If the incident occurred in Florida and the driver of the vehicle complied with the Florida No-Fault law, then you and/or your girls would have to have some degree of permanent injury to qualify for pain and suffering compensation. You should consult with an automobile accident attorney to assess the value of your claim. The time limit for filing suit on an auto accident occurring in Florida is four years from the date of the accident.
