Whether you live in Aventura, Miami, or anywhere in Miami-Dade county, you’ve likely seen distracted drivers on the road. Any driver who is applying makeup, texting, talking on the phone, eating, or otherwise not fully focused on driving is a danger on the road.

Distracted driving can cause traffic accidents which lead to burn injuries, fractures, whiplash, spinal cord trauma, head injuries, and other catastrophic injuries. A few seconds of inattention is all it can take to affect a person’s life seriously and negatively.

Florida is known as the Sunshine State, but our beautiful weather and the many days of bright sunshine can make driving hazardous. We understand we need to slow down during a terrible storm because of the weather, but some drivers are negligent in accounting for bright sunlight, too.

Every day, about seven teens are killed and hundreds suffer serious injuries nationwide due to car accidents, according to the CDC. While teens see getting a driver’s license as a rite of passage and a way to get freedom, getting behind the wheel is often the most dangerous thing drivers do everyday, and these motorists face additional risks when compared with other users of the road.

Refusal to submit to a urine, blood, or breath test for alcohol carries at least a year-long suspension and an 18-month suspension for a second offence.

I had a lawyer on another case and I never spoke to the lawyer and I hated that I never knew what was going on in my case. Mr. Flaxman was in constant communication with me, explained everything to me, and his staff was really great too. My phone calls were always returned immediately. It was refreshing to be able to speak to my attorney personally. I would HIGHLY recommend Mr. Flaxman as an attorney to anyone who has been in an accident. Gloria
