Florida rules that shape your Cadillac claim

Florida's Office of Insurance Regulation oversees one of the most complex insurance markets in the US, particularly for property insurance due to hurricane exposure. Major tort reform in 2023 changed Florida from a pure comparative to modified comparative fault state.

Key Florida regulations

  • Modified comparative fault — barred at 51% or more fault (as of 2023 tort reform)

  • 2-year statute of limitations for personal injury (reduced from 4 years in 2023)

  • No-fault PIP state — PIP coverage required on all policies

  • Assignment of Benefits (AOB) reform limits contractor direct claims

Handling an auto-claim in Miami Gardens, FL

As one of Florida's established cities, Miami Gardens has a real used-car market of its own — meaning the value your vehicle lost after an accident is measurable against genuine local comps, not a statewide average an adjuster pulled remotely.

Miami Gardens is roughly 5 miles from North Miami Beach, FL — close enough for in-person appraisal options within Florida, but your comparable-sales evidence should reflect the Miami Gardens market specifically, not a neighbouring city's prices.

Keep every repair record: the estimate, the final invoice, and any notes on structural or frame work. Those documents — not the adjuster's opinion — are what move a valuation. Search for a reputable collision shop near Miami Gardens and ask for an itemized post-repair report.
