About Personal Injury Protection (PIP) in West Clermont

In the spring of 2021, the Florida state legislature repealed personal injury protection (PIP) or no-fault insurance in the state. Ultimately, however, the governor vetoed that bill and PIP coverage in auto insurance remained the law of the land.

Florida is one of 12 states that have no-fault insurance laws. Under no-fault insurance rules in our state, injured drivers’ own auto insurance provides personal injury protection (PIP) for themselves and their passengers, up to $10,000 per person or $20,000 total per accident. PIP benefits will cover up to 80% of medical costs and up to 60% of wage loss.

Despite the protection that PIP offers, many people’s injuries resulting from crashes end up costing more than $10,000. After their own insurers have paid out the $10,000 limit, it may be possible and necessary for an injured person to sue another driver who can be shown have been negligent.
