Personal Injury Protection Claims

Automobile Insurance companies routinely deny and/or reduce bills submitted for reimbursement under a person’s Personal Injury Protection (PIP) coverage. These denials and reductions are for medical bills, mileage reimbursement, wage loss and reimbursement for medically necessary prescriptions, supplies and equipment. Some denials are easy to identify, for instance, when the insurance company allows zero for your submitted claim. However, most reductions are extremely difficult to recognize and, even when recognized, require a complex analysis of Fla. Stat. 627.736 and years of case law to determine if the denial or reduction was proper. Many times it even appears as if the bill was reimbursed properly when it indeed was not. Since 2003, attorney Brian Boyd has represented numerous medical providers and individuals whose PIP claims were improperly denied or reduced. He has successfully prosecuted countless PIP suits over the years recovering vast amounts of benefits that were improperly reduced or denied by the insurance company. Our firm offers an absolutely free check or double check for any of your PIP claims. We will review and submit at no cost or risk to you and will be able to determine if your bills were paid correctly or if they were improperly reduced or denied by the insurance company. This can be done even if you believe all bills were paid directly or even if you already had another attorney previously review them.
