The Rubin Firm

What turns a car accident into a criminal case in Florida? It comes down to a few factors.

Was the driver careless or reckless? Were they under the influence of drugs or alcohol? Did the crash cause serious bodily injury or death?

And whether an arrest happens may not be decided on the side of the road. Some cases are investigated for weeks before charges are ever filed.

If you were in a crash, on either side of it, talk to a lawyer who knows how these cases get built. Paul M. Aloise, Jr. is a former prosecutor at The Rubin Firm. Call (772) 283-2004 or visit therubinfirm.com.

Most motorcycle accident claims are won or lost on evidence, and a lot of that evidence disappears within hours.

Photos of the scene. Witness names and numbers. The small details you remember right after it happens. The more you gather, the more your attorney has to work with.

The Rubin Firm has been trying personal injury cases in Florida for decades. We know what a strong motorcycle claim is built on, and we know what insurers look for to tear one apart.

"A medical mistake was made." Now what?

Medical malpractice under Florida law covers mistakes made by a range of providers: nurses, doctors, hospitals, and specialists. It is not limited to one person in a white coat.

If a provider's error left you or a family member with serious injuries, you may have more options than you think.

Injured or killed in a crash. In Florida, those words can mean far more than a traffic ticket.

Under Florida law, causing serious bodily injury or death can carry consequences for your driver's license and serious monetary penalties, even if you are never charged with a crime.

That is exactly why you want a former prosecutor reading your case. Paul Aloise spent years building these cases for the State. Now he defends them.

Trademark or copyright? People mix these up constantly.

A trademark protects the things that identify your brand: names, slogans, logos, product names. It tells the world that what you are looking at comes from one trusted source. Think Coca-Cola.

A copyright is different. It protects the actual expression of an artistic idea.

If you are building a brand or creating original work, knowing which protection you need matters. Board-certified IP attorney Kevin Crosby can walk you through it.

Two years. That is all the time Florida now gives you to file a lawsuit after a car accident.

The law changed in 2023, dropping the deadline from four years to two. The sooner you understand your rights, the more options you keep.
