You can also recover many non-economic damages, including:

We document the value of your case with bills and receipts that substantiate your economic damages and fight for your non-economic damages.

Let Our Truck Accident Lawyers File Your Case Before Florida’s Statute of Limitations
The statute of limitations on personal injury cases in Florida was decreased in March 2023, meaning you have a smaller window of opportunity to file your lawsuit. According to Florida Statutes § 95.11:
- Your personal injury lawsuit must be filed within two years of the date the accident occurred.
- Your wrongful death lawsuit must be filed within two years of the date of a loved one’s demise.
There are limited exceptions to these time restrictions, per Florida Statutes § 95.051. To avoid setbacks, it is important to file within the constraints of the statute of limitations.
Get the Legal Support You Need at No Upfront Cost to You
Injury victims may delay filing their lawsuits out of concern for the cost of hiring a lawyer. At Ged Lawyers, we eliminate the need to wait by representing injured clients on a contingency fee basis.
Our lawyers will not charge you unless you recover compensation. Our risk-free policy states that you only pay attorney fees when we win a financial award for you. If you do not recover damages, you owe us nothing at all.

Potentially Liable Parties for Your Panama City Truck Accident
The at-fault party in your case is identified by their acts of negligence that caused or contributed to your accident. At Ged Lawyers, our investigation will prove negligence by proving its elements—duty of care, breach of duty, causation, and damages.
Potential at-fault parties include:
- The truck driver
- Trucking company
- Truck manufacturer
- Parts manufacturer
- Cargo loading facility
- Truck repair facility
Even a municipality can be liable if road conditions, or faulty traffic signs and signals contributed to the accident. Our truck accident lawyers serving Panama City Beach will identify all liable parties and their insurance providers.
We Compile the Evidence You Need to Prove Your Right to Compensation
Your case file will tell the story of your accident and its financial costs. Our legal team will collect the evidence you need and submit it to the at-fault party and their legal and insurance representative, including:
- Police report that indicates the accident’s causes and contributing factors
- Medical records that describe your injuries and their cause and severity
- Employment and salary history records that provide proof of lost income
- Photos of the accident scene, both involved vehicles, and your injuries
- Statements from accident witnesses and medical and other experts
We may also ask you for a written statement that describes the physical and emotional toll the accident has taken on your life. The accumulated evidence can steer your case toward a settlement. If one cannot be reached, we will not hesitate to go to court to achieve the best financial outcome for you and your family.
