Nassau County, Florida, Car Accident Lawyers

The lawyers at The Lawrence Law Group focus on car accidents that take place in Nassau County, Florida, among other Northeast Florida counties. Not all car accident attorneys in Nassau County, Florida, have the same familiarity with the area. Having lived in Nassau County, firm attorney, Greg Lawrence, knows the highways and byways there very well.

Nassau County has some characteristics that lead to a large number of car accidents. First, of course, is the fact that the major artery into the State of Florida, Interstate 95 (I-95), runs the length of the county. With the amount of traffic on I-95, the number of car and truck accidents with serious injuries is unfortunately very high. Fatal accidents causing wrongful deaths are an all too common occurrence.

Highway 17 parallels I-95, running north and south through the county. It has numerous intersections which can lead to accidents, especially the intersection with County Road 200 (also known as A1A) in Yulee, Florida. Compounding the danger of Highway 17 is that, in many areas of the highway, traffic traveling in opposite directions is not separated by a median or barrier. This means that vehicles travelling in opposite directions can be involved in a high speed collision by simply crossing the center line. With the number of distractions facing drivers these days including cell phones, texting, social media, and gps devices, the possibility of an accident resulting from a driver crossing the center line is always present.

State Road 121 also presents serious risks. It is a one lane in each direction, high-speed roadway that runs along the western border of the property alongside the St. Mary’s River. Because of the numerous residential driveways that enter State Road 121, vehicles entering and slowing to exit the roadway pose a danger when interacting with through traffic. Tragically, there have been a number of fatal accidents along this rural roadway in recent years.

Highways 301 and U.S. 1 also run through Nassau County and have seen their fair share of auto and eighteen wheeler trucking accidents. While these roadways do have large medians, the commercial and logging truck traffic through this area is heavy.

State Road 200 crosses from Callahan into Fernandina Beach. As a high speed thoroughfare, accidents, including rear end collisions, left turn accidents and running of red lights at intersections are common.

People suffering personal injuries in Nassau County accidents are often transported to Baptist Medical Center Nassau hospital. For very serious trauma, injured persons are usually taken to Shands Jacksonville Medical Center, sometimes by life flight helicopters. For follow-up care, there are numerous medical providers in the county, including Baptist Health, Coastal Spine and Pain, primary care doctors, physical therapists and chiropractors.

I have known Mr. Lawrence for several years and in my opinion he is the most professional and trustworthy lawyer I have ever known. I have had dealings with other lawyers but they were not as good as Mr. Lawrence. I would highly recommend him. Carla
★★★★★
I was referred to Greg by a coworker after I received a bad injury from an auto accident and was so pleased with Greg, and staff. They literally took care of everything for me while I was healing and kept me updated every step of the way. Calls and emails were always accepted and returned promptly and they were extremely patient and helpful with any questions and concerns that I had. Should I ever need legal assistance again I will definitely be calling him and referring him to family and friends. Amie M.
★★★★★
I had a difficult disability case, and was referred to Greg by a judge. As an experienced lawyer myself, I was apprehensive about using someone I didn't know. As it turned out, however, I could not have been more pleased. Greg mastered the case in no time, and was nothing short of brilliant in getting me a substantial settlement. He's a lawyer's lawyer, and I recommend him highly and without reservation. Steve

I would like to take a moment to say thanks to Greg, and his staff for doing an excellent job with my deceased mothers nursing home case. After hiring two other law firms my brothers and I decided to hire Greg. This was the best decision that we made regarding this case. Greg took the time to get to know who our deceased mother was, and the important facts involving our claim. As a result Greg was successful in resolving our claim to our satisfaction. Greg is the best attorney that I have ever met! I would highly recommend hiring Greg for any nursing home, or any other claims. Falsario Arnold

Of all the things that pleased me about Greg was that he was always available to me. If I called or emailed, I spoke to him and wasn't pushed off to one of his paralegals or assistants (although they were very helpful as well). I felt like I had a lawyer - not a factory. Scott
