Describe your personal injury matterWhat should I do after an accident that was not my fault?
Get medical attention and keep every record, report the incident, photograph what you can, and be careful what you say to the other side’s insurer. Most personal injury lawyers work on contingency, so an early consultation usually costs nothing.

Florida starts from an ABA-like base in Rule 4-1.5(g): division between lawyers in different firms is allowed if the total fee is reasonable and either the division is proportional to services performed, or by written agreement with the client each lawyer assumes joint legal responsibility and agrees to be available for consultation, with the client's written agreement disclosing the basis of the split. But in personal-injury and similar contingency cases, Rule 4-1.5(f)(4)(D) overlays hard caps: the lawyer with primary responsibility must receive at least 75% of the fee and the secondary (referring) lawyer at most 25%, with any larger secondary share presumed clearly excessive unless the lawyers do substantially equal work and obtain court approval through a sworn petition. This quantitative cap plus court-approval mechanism makes Florida a distinct outlier.
