Governor DeSantis is being pressed by Florida business owners to veto the most recent push to revamp the automobile insurance system and eliminate PIP (Personal Injury Protection) insurance coverage. Senate Bill 54, which was passed in late 2020, is expected to raise the minimum coverage required automobile insurance from $10,000 to $25,000. This increase would ultimately cost vehicle owners more money and lead to a devastating rise in the number of drivers that carry no insurance coverage at all. This would greatly impact those residents that are involved and injured in a car accident in Miami, and all Florida cities.

The Miami car accident attorneys at the Perazzo Law Firm remind motorists that several Florida cities rank at the top when it comes to car accidents & personal injuries sustained. Ultimately, this bill would make it almost impossible to receive medical care to treat injuries for an accident in which a noninsured driver was at fault.

PIP INSURANCE COVERAGE OVERHAUL UNDER WAY

by The Perazzo Law Firm, P.A.

IN MIAMI, THE PERAZZO LAW FIRM SHARES INSIGHT ON PIP (PERSONAL INJURY PROTECTION) INSURANCE COVERAGE AND HOW IT WILL AFFECT YOU AS A REGISTERED MOTOR VEHICLE OWNER IN FLORIDA.

If you are a registered motor vehicle owner in the State of Florida, Jonathan Perazzo, founder and personal injury lawyer at the Perazzo Law Firm, reminds you that PIP insurance is mandatory in Florida. However, that could all change very soon if Gov.

But what about UM (Uninsured Motorist) insurance? According to Jonathan Perazzo, a highly dedicated car accident lawyer in Miami, UM insurance should be mandatory for all registered motor vehicle owners.

Here’s what Jonathan had to say about the change from PIP to BI:

TALLAHASSEE —Florida Senators are full steam ahead with yet another proposal to get rid of the no-fault insurance system, otherwise known as PIP (Personal Injury Protection) for Florida motorists. If successful, this would radically change the way insurance providers, policy holders, and personal injury accident attorneys handle insurance claims for compensation following motor vehicle accidents.

The proposed bill (SB 54) aims to eliminate no-fault insurance and have it replaced by bodily injury coverage (see Insurance Policies for Florida Motorists). However, it must first must be passed by the Senate Judiciary Committee and face a probable lawsuit on behalf of personal injury attorneys that oppose the change.
