What is the fastest way to reach a Hialeah car accident lawyer?

Call 305-965-3766. That phone is answered by a person, not a recording or an AI assistant, no matter the hour. You can call at 2 a.m. after leaving the hospital, on a Sunday afternoon while waiting for your doctor’s appointment, or during a holiday when other offices are closed. The moment you dial, someone from Wolfson & Leon will listen to what happened, ask a few basic questions, and tell you exactly what steps come next. If you prefer to start online, fill out the contact form on this website. But if speed matters, and it does, especially with Florida’s 14-day medical treatment rule, the phone call is your best move.

What other ways can I get in touch if I cannot call right now?

You do not need to be able to travel or even leave your bed to speak with an attorney. Submit your information through the contact form on this website, and someone will call you back promptly. You can also visit the office at 1840 W 49th St #734, Hialeah, FL 33012; call ahead to confirm office hours. If you are recovering at home and cannot drive, an attorney will come to you. If you are admitted to Hialeah Hospital (651 E 25th Street) or Palmetto General Hospital (2001 W 68th Street), a lawyer can meet you at your bedside. A family member or trusted friend may also call on your behalf to arrange any of these options, you do not need to speak for yourself if you are in pain or under medication.

What happens during that first call, what will they ask me?

The first call costs nothing. The attorney will ask where and when the crash happened, for example, on Okeechobee Road near Palm Avenue or on the Palmetto Expressway. They will ask how it occurred: Was it a rear-end collision? A left-turn crash? Did a police report get filed? They will ask about your injuries and whether you have seen a doctor yet. If you have not, they will remind you that Florida law (Fla. Stat. § 627.736(1)(a)) requires initial treatment within 14 days to qualify for your own PIP benefits (up to $10,000 with an emergency medical condition, otherwise $2,500). They will also ask about insurance: your policy, the other driver’s coverage, and whether you have uninsured motorist protection. Nothing you say creates an obligation. This call is how you learn your rights before making any decisions.

Can I call in Spanish, and will I actually be understood?

Yes. Most attorneys and staff at Wolfson & Leon speak Spanish fluently. You can conduct the entire first call in Spanish, and all future communications, including fee agreements, case updates, and settlement discussions, can be handled in Spanish. Language should never be a barrier to getting legal help in Hialeah, where so many residents rely on Spanish as their primary language. When you call 305-965-3766, just say “hablamos español” and you will be connected to someone who understands you completely.

Does calling cost anything, and how does the fee work?

The consultation is free. No credit card is needed, and you owe nothing just for asking questions. Wolfson & Leon handles car accident cases on a contingency fee basis, which means the firm only gets paid if money is recovered for you. The exact percentage and any potential costs, like filing fees or expert witness expenses, are spelled out in writing in the fee agreement before you sign anything. Do not assume “it’s just 33 percent.” The written contract tells you precisely what to expect. And you do not need surgery or a broken bone to need a lawyer. If the other driver denies fault, your PIP claim gets denied, you missed work, or the at-fault driver had no insurance, an attorney can help protect your rights long before medical bills pile up.

Why can’t I just wait a few weeks before calling?

Two hard deadlines make waiting risky. First, under Florida Statute § 627.736(1)(a), you must see a qualified medical provider within 14 days of the crash or your own insurance can deny your PIP benefits entirely, even if you were seriously hurt. Second, for accidents on or after March 24, 2023, Florida law (Fla. Stat. § 95.11) gives you only two years to file a lawsuit, down from four. Beyond these deadlines, evidence vanishes fast. Dashcam footage gets erased, security video from nearby businesses is often overwritten within days or weeks, and witnesses forget details. Calling 305-965-3766 right away preserves your options. Waiting narrows them.

Frequently asked questions

Can a family member call Wolfson & Leon for me if I am in the hospital?
Yes. A spouse, parent, adult child, or close friend can call 305-965-3766 on your behalf to schedule a hospital visit or relay basic details. The attorney will speak directly with you before any decision is made, but initial contact can come from someone you trust.

What if my crash happened outside Hialeah, can Wolfson & Leon still help?
Yes. Wolfson & Leon represents clients across Miami-Dade County, including crashes in Miami, Doral, Sweetwater, and beyond. Location of the crash does not limit your ability to get help from their Hialeah office.

I haven’t seen a doctor yet. Is it too late to call an attorney?
No. Call immediately. An attorney can explain the 14-day PIP rule and help you find a qualifying medical provider quickly, if you are still within the window. Even if you are past 14 days, you may still have options depending on your injuries and insurance.

Do I have to give the other driver’s insurance company a recorded statement before I call a lawyer?
No. You are not required to give a recorded statement to the other driver’s insurer. In fact, it is often better to speak with an attorney first. What you say in that statement can be used to reduce or deny your claim.

How long do I have to file a lawsuit after a Hialeah car accident?
For crashes on or after March 24, 2023, you have two years from the date of the accident to file a negligence lawsuit under Florida Statute § 95.11. This deadline is strict, and missing it usually means losing your right to sue.
