Okay I was in my sisters car when the accident happened. The problem is that I was on my way to go to the tag/title and insurance office I just bought a new car, so I had no car insurance of my own, otherwise my car insurance would have been the responsible one. The next person responsible for my hospital bills would be my sisters car insurance company. They didn't want to pay so I am going to talk to my sisters lawyer today. I know they will be able to get my medical bills paid for, but why do people normally hire a lawyer after an accident and why does someone who is hurt only minor hire a laywer to get a settlement, I am not familiar with all of this, so I'm curious if I should just take the step of getting my medical bills paid or go a step further and sue the guys company who hit us, because I know I have been to the doc a few times since then and may have to get physical therapy, so help me please I know nothing about all of this, send me a note!!!

I suppose you want to SUE. Everyone now wants to sue and get quick and easy money for any little boo boo. That's why our rates are outrageous. If you don't want to sue or if you have a legitimate problem, please accept my apologies. There are good and bad people everywhere. I hope you are a good one. There aren't too many left that have any integrity

How can you ask advice when you don't explain the mechanics of the accident? Any advice you may receive won't be complete. Just asking for "car accident cases in Florida" is a pretty broad spectrum to cover.
If the car you were in wasn hit and not the vehicle at fault then the other vehicle owner's insurance would cover it in most cases.
If they aren't insured, your sister's would depending upon the type of coverage she has.
Your insurance would not cover you while riding in someone else's car.

You need to give some more detail. Are you looking to put in a personal injury claim? Or are you wanting to get your car fixed? Or both.

Laws involving accidents dont vary much, if at all, from state to state.

Florida is a 'No Fault' state, so good luck.

your best bet is to ask an attorney. many will give you a free first consultation.
