Miami Rear-End Accident Lawyers
Our attorneys fight to recover financial compensation
Rear-end collisions are some of the most common car accidents in Miami, especially with the constant stop-and-go traffic on I-95, US-1, and throughout neighborhoods such as Little Havana, Brickell, and Coral Way. But just because they’re common doesn’t mean they’re simple. It also doesn’t mean the other driver’s insurance company will do the right thing.
Despite being seemingly straightforward, rear-end collision cases are heavily disputed by insurance companies. That’s why having an experienced Miami rear-end accident lawyer on your side can give you an advantage. Romanow Law Group helps people who were rear-ended get the medical treatment, financial support, and justice they deserve.
If someone slammed into you, you shouldn’t have to suffer twice – once from the crash, and again from the insurance runaround. Contact us online or call our Miami law office for a free consultation and find out how we can help.

Why do rear-end crashes happen so often in Miami?
The roads here are unpredictable. One minute you’re cruising on I-95, the next you’re forced to suddenly slow down due to a traffic jam. Then, the driver behind you slams into the back of your vehicle. Add in distracted drivers, speeding, and people tailgating just to gain a few extra seconds, and rear-end collisions become inevitable.
Most rear-end accidents we see in Miami are caused by:
- Distracted drivers (texting, GPS use, eating behind the wheel)
- Following too closely in heavy traffic
- Speeding and inability to stop in time
- Drivers failing to notice red lights or slowed traffic
- Sudden stops at busy intersections or school zones
What kinds of injuries can rear-end collisions cause?
Rear-end crashes are often brushed off as “minor fender benders.” However, they can leave lasting damage, especially if your body was jolted forward or your head snapped back on impact. We’ve helped clients recover compensation for a variety of injuries caused by rear-end accidents, including:
- Whiplash and neck strain
- Herniated or bulging discs
- Back and shoulder injuries
- Concussions or traumatic brain injuries
- Chronic headaches or nerve damage
- Emotional trauma and anxiety
Even at low speeds, the force of a rear-end collision can throw your body out of alignment and cause injuries that take time to develop. Recovering from your injuries can take time and treatment can be expensive. That’s why the rear-end accident lawyers at Romanow Law Group look at the big picture when calculating your damages.
Is the rear driver always at fault in Florida?
In most cases, the driver who hits you from behind is legally presumed to be at fault. But there are exceptions. If you suddenly stopped without reason, or your brake lights weren’t working, the other side may try to argue that you share some blame.
Unfortunately, that’s exactly what insurance companies often do. They dig for anything to reduce what they owe you. Our job is to protect you from those tactics and make sure the full truth is presented.
What if my injuries didn’t show up right away?
That’s extremely common. With rear-end crashes, especially at lower speeds, it may take hours or even days for symptoms to appear. Adrenaline can mask symptoms. Some injuries may not appear on initial scans.
That’s why it’s so important to:
- Get checked out by a doctor ASAP (even if you feel “fine”)
- Document every symptom, appointment, and recommendation
- Speak with a lawyer who understands how to prove the full extent of your injuries
Insurance companies love to use delays in treatment against you. The longer you wait, the easier it is for insurance companies to argue that your injury isn’t as serious as you claim. We make sure that doesn’t happen. Our lawyers work with medical experts to get the full scope of your injury and how it impacts your life.
How much is a rear-end accident case worth?
Every rear-end collision case is different. Your compensation depends on the severity of your injuries, the impact on your daily life, and who’s responsible. You may be entitled to recover:
- Medical expenses
- Future treatment and rehab costs
- Lost wages
- Loss of future earning ability
- Pain and suffering
- Property damage
When you work with our rear-end accident attorneys, we’ll gather the medical records, expert opinions, and documentation needed to demand every dollar you’re owed until you reach maximum medical improvement.
What if the insurance company already made me an offer?
You should absolutely talk to a lawyer before accepting an initial settlement offer from an insurance company. Rear-end accidents are notorious for being lowballed, especially when the damage to the car “doesn’t look bad.” But your car doesn’t need to be totaled for you to suffer serious injuries.
If you accept a lowball settlement offer, you could find yourself paying for future medical expenses and other damages out of your own pocket. Once you accept an offer, you most likely can’t pursue additional compensation. Let us review the offer and tell you whether it’s fair. If it’s not (and chances are, it’s not), we’ll take over from there and negotiate aggressively on your behalf.
