Frequently Asked Questions — Hollywood
Which court would hear my Hollywood case?
Hollywood is in Broward County, served by the Seventeenth Judicial Circuit, with the courthouse in Fort Lauderdale. The proper court depends on the amount in controversy and the type of claim.
I was hurt on the Hollywood Broadwalk. What kind of claim is that?
Depending on how it happened, it may be a premises liability claim against a property owner or a vehicle claim. The Broadwalk mixes pedestrians, cyclists, and rental equipment, so identifying the responsible party and applicable insurance is an important early step.
How soon should I contact a lawyer after a Hollywood accident?
As soon as practical. Florida shortened the deadline for most negligence claims to two years, and surveillance footage from beach-area businesses often cycles within days.
