St. Petersburg Personal Injury Attorney Fighting for the Compensation You Deserve
Personal Injury Lawyer in Tampa
Practice Areas We Handle Across the Tampa Bay Region
When you or a loved one is hurt because of someone else's careless or reckless actions, you deserve more than sympathy — you deserve results. Attorney Wil Flores has spent years representing injury victims throughout the Tampa Bay region, from St. Petersburg and Tampa to Bradenton, North Pinellas, Pasco County, and Riverview. Our firm takes on the insurance companies and at-fault parties so you can focus on healing.
Florida's no-fault insurance system can make recovering fair compensation complicated. Under Florida Statutes § 627.736, every driver carries Personal Injury Protection (PIP) coverage, but PIP only covers a portion of your losses and it does nothing for pain and suffering. When your injuries are serious, our firm pursues the full compensation you are legally entitled to, including:
- Medical expenses — past and future
- Lost income and reduced earning capacity
- Pain, suffering, and emotional distress
- Property damage and out-of-pocket costs
We are a trial-ready litigation firm. That means insurance carriers know we will take a case to the jury if they refuse to offer a fair settlement. Our approach combines skilled negotiation, thorough case preparation, and, when necessary, courtroom advocacy.

Free ConsultationAuto Accidents
Florida ranks among the nation's most dangerous states for drivers. Whether you were rear-ended on I-275, sideswiped on U.S. 19, or hit by an uninsured driver, Attorney Wil Flores builds the evidence to hold the responsible party accountable — and pursues every dollar of compensation available under Florida law.
Learn MoreMotorcycle Accidents
Motorcyclists face a severe injury risk when other drivers fail to check their blind spots or violate right-of-way. Our firm understands Florida's comparative fault rules and works to counter the bias motorcyclists often face from insurance adjusters, fighting for full compensation for your injuries, bike damage, and related losses.
Learn MoreWrongful Death
When negligence claims an innocent life, Florida law allows surviving family members to seek compensation for funeral and burial costs, loss of financial support, loss of companionship, and the pain and suffering experienced before death. Attorney Wil Flores handles these deeply personal cases with discretion and determination, so that families can focus on grief while we pursue justice.
Learn MoreTrucking Accidents
Crashes involving semi-trucks and commercial vehicles often result in catastrophic injuries due to the extreme size and weight difference. These cases involve multiple liable parties — drivers, carriers, and maintenance contractors — each with their own insurer and legal team. We investigate thoroughly, identify every responsible party, and demand maximum compensation on your behalf.
Learn MoreSlip & Fall Accidents
Property owners in Florida have a duty to maintain safe conditions for visitors. When a wet floor, uneven pavement, poor lighting, or unmarked hazard causes you to fall and suffer injury, you may have a premises liability claim. Our firm gathers surveillance footage, incident reports, and maintenance records to prove negligence before critical evidence disappears.
Learn MoreNursing Home Negligence
Florida residents in long-term care facilities are protected under the Florida Nursing Home Residents' Rights Act. When a facility's neglect causes falls, bedsores, malnutrition, improper medication, or abuse, those responsible must be held accountable. We advocate for vulnerable seniors and their families with the urgency and compassion these cases demand.
Learn MoreFrequently Asked Questions About Personal Injury Claims in Florida
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Florida?
Under Florida Statutes § 95.11, most personal injury claims must be filed within two years of the date of the accident. Missing this deadline will almost certainly bar your claim entirely. Contact our office as soon as possible—evidence fades, witnesses become harder to locate, and early legal intervention typically leads to better outcomes.
What if I was partially at fault for the accident?
Florida follows a modified comparative negligence rule. As of March 2023, if you are found more than 50% at fault, you cannot recover damages. If you are 50% or less at fault, your compensation is reduced in proportion to your share of fault. Insurance companies often try to assign more blame than you deserve, making experienced legal representation especially valuable.
Do I need a lawyer if the insurance company has already offered me a settlement?
Before accepting any settlement offer, speak with an attorney. Initial offers from insurance adjusters routinely undervalue claims, especially when future medical costs or long-term disability have not yet been fully assessed. Once you sign a release, you generally cannot pursue additional compensation, even if your condition worsens.
How much does it cost to hire a personal injury attorney?
Our firm handles personal injury cases on a contingency fee basis. That means you pay no attorney's fees unless we recover compensation for you. There are no upfront costs and no hourly charges. The contingency fee arrangement is explained during your free initial consultation.
