The Marin Law Offices Resources Hub
The Resources hub is the firm's working library: guides, FAQs, glossary entries, and side-by-side comparisons. It is the place to start when you are not yet ready to call but want a framework for the decisions that follow an injury or fatal incident.
The library covers what changes when Florida's statute of limitations expires, how the modified comparative-negligence rule interacts with insurance offers, and which evidence sources tend to decide cases. Every page is written for a South Florida reader from a Miami Beach office.
Use the FAQs for fast answers, the accident guides for case-type deep dives, the glossary when a term in an adjuster letter needs translating, and the comparisons when the choice between two paths is not obvious.

How the Resource Hub Translates Into a Case
The Problem
A South Florida reader has just been involved in a crash and is reading the relevant guide before deciding whether to retain counsel. The at-fault insurer has already left a voicemail.
Our Approach
The free consultation translates the framework knowledge into a specific case plan: applicable deadlines, coverage layers, evidence preservation priorities, and the right next call.
The Outcome
The reader makes an informed decision with the framework first and the call second. The decision is grounded in knowledge of the system, not in pressure from the adjuster.

Florida Personal Injury Resources Questions
Are these resources legal advice? +
No. The resources provide general educational information about Florida personal injury law. They are not a substitute for advice on your specific situation, which requires a consultation. The free consultation is the way to translate the general information into a specific case plan.
Are the resources updated? +
Yes. Florida personal injury law changed substantially in 2023, particularly on statute of limitations. The resources are reviewed regularly to reflect current law. If you have questions about timing-sensitive issues, call to confirm what currently applies to your case.
Why are the resources free? +
Informed clients make better decisions. The firm publishes free educational content because the consultation works better when the client already understands the basic framework, and because plenty of injured South Floridians benefit from the information whether they retain the firm or not.
Can I get a consultation in Spanish? +
Yes. The firm handles full case work in English and Spanish, including consultations. Lead attorney Donny Marin is personally fluent in both languages, and case communication continues in the client preferred language throughout.
What if my question is not addressed? +
Call the firm. A 20 to 45 minute consultation typically addresses everything specific to your situation that the general resources cannot cover. There is no charge for the consultation, and there is no obligation to retain the firm afterward.
Do you handle cases outside South Florida? +
The firm primarily serves Miami-Dade and Broward, with extensive maritime and federal-court practice. Cases arising outside South Florida are evaluated case-by-case, with referrals provided when the firm is not the right fit.
What is the statute of limitations? +
For most negligence-based injury claims in Florida, the statute of limitations is two years from the date of injury for accidents on or after March 24, 2023. Older accidents may have a four-year window. Government-entity and maritime claims often have shorter notice deadlines.
How quickly should I act? +
As soon as practical. Evidence preservation, witness statements, and camera footage are all easier to secure early. Statutory deadlines start from the date of injury, not the date of discovery in most cases. Earlier consultation protects more options.
What if I am not sure I have a case? +
That is exactly what the free consultation is for. The firm tells you honestly whether the case has merit, what the realistic recovery picture looks like, and whether the firm can help. There is no pressure either way. The 20 to 45 minute conversation produces a clear written recap by email afterward summarizing the deadlines, the available coverage layers, and the recommended next steps, so the decision to retain or not is informed.
