Auto accidents happen suddenly, often leaving victims with painful injuries, mounting medical bills, and overwhelming stress. In the aftermath of a crash, many people assume they can handle the insurance process on their own—only to discover that insurers are quick to undervalue claims or deny responsibility altogether. That’s why having an experienced auto accident attorney on your side is essential.

At Lance P. Richard, P.A.., we represent victims of auto accidents throughout Stuart and across Florida, fighting to protect their rights and ensure they receive the full compensation they deserve.

The Challenges After an Auto Accident

Even a seemingly minor accident can cause lasting harm. Victims may suffer whiplash, spinal injuries, brain trauma, or emotional distress that doesn’t appear until weeks later. At the same time, medical expenses, lost wages, and repair costs begin to pile up, putting financial strain on victims and their families.

Insurance companies often take advantage of this vulnerable time by offering quick settlements that rarely cover the full extent of damages. Accepting too little too soon can leave you struggling for years.

How an Auto Accident Attorney Protects You

An experienced personal injury attorney can make the difference between being underpaid and receiving the compensation you truly deserve. At Lance Richard, P.A., we:

• Conduct a thorough investigation of the crash, including reviewing police reports and interviewing witnesses
• Work with medical professionals to fully evaluate your injuries and future care needs
• Calculate all damages, including medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and long-term impacts
• Negotiate aggressively with insurance companies on your behalf
• Take your case to trial if insurers refuse to offer a fair settlement

Standing Up to Insurance Companies

Insurance companies are businesses focused on minimizing payouts—not on helping victims. They may delay your claim, dispute liability, or downplay your injuries. With decades of experience, Lance Richard knows these tactics and how to counter them effectively. His goal is to level the playing field and hold insurers accountable so you can focus on recovery.

Compassionate Support for Families

When auto accidents lead to tragedy, families may also have the right to file a wrongful death claim. Lance Richard provides compassionate representation for grieving families, ensuring they receive justice and financial stability after the loss of a loved one.
