The Pembroke Pines car accident lawyers at Freeman Injury Law are dedicated to representing victims of traffic accidents throughout the Pembroke area, including Hollywood, Southeast Ranches, Cooper City and Miramar. The rapid growth in the two decades since Hurricane Andrew has frequently put Pembroke Pines on the list of America’s fastest growing cities. While the growth is a well-deserved point of civic pride, it has also brought a number of challenges, including traffic congestion and overcrowded schools. In 2001, the intersection of Pines Boulevard and Flamingo Road, was named the deadliest intersection in America by State Farm Insurance.
The Pembroke Pines injury attorneys at Freeman Injury Law represent motorists and families dealing with all types of serious and fatal traffic accidents, including car accidents, motorcycle accidents, trucking accidents, bus accidents, pedestrian accidents, bicycle accidents, uninsured motorist accidents, drunk driving accidents and hit-and-run accidents. In each case, our attorneys will meet with you, assemble a team to thoroughly review the facts and circumstances of the accident, and build a case capable of winning you the compensation you deserve to deal with lost wages, pain and suffering, medical bills, rehabilitation or a disability or wrongful death claim.
The rapid growth of the Pembroke Pines area has given rise to issues involving defective roads and municipal or premise liability. When a state, county or local government fails to maintain roads in a safe condition, or fails to construct or expand roads and other infrastructure to keep up with approved growth and development, the resulting conditions can leave motorists at greater risk for being involved in a serious or fatal accident. Examples of municipal liability may include inoperable or missing street signs or signals, poorly maintained roads, missing sidewalks, guardrails or crosswalks, and roads that have either been poorly designed or are operating at well over capacity.
Such liability claims may also extend to builders of housing developments, where road construction and maintenance are the responsibility of the builder. Lack of sidewalks, poor road maintenance, overgrown vegetation and other issues may lead to a serious or fatal accident.
