  Exceptional Personal Injury Firm I engaged Consumer Law Attorneys to assist me with a personal injury matter that occurred during my pregnancy. It was a particularly frightening experience, especially during the third trimester. From my initial consultation with Attorney Young Kim, I found him to be informative, professional, and friendly. Throughout the process, he was always available to answer my questions, which gave me great confidence and allowed me to focus on my family rather than the case. Attorney Kim reached a settlement that exceeded my expectations. I am extremely pleased with the outcome. My baby and I are doing well, thanks to Mr. Kim and his dedicated paralegal, Elaine. I highly recommend Consumer Law.

  Excellent Legal Representation I recently had the pleasure of working with Consumer Law Attorneys (CLA) on my personal injury case. Attorney Young Kim and his Paralegal Elaine were always available to answer my questions and kept me informed every step of the way. I received a fair settlement that exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend CLA to anyone in need of a personal injury attorney. Their exceptional service and genuine care for their clients set them apart from their competitors.

  I stupidly signed as a Co Borrower for a young family member.  I had no idea home was in foreclosure until contacted by a process server. Consumer Law worked with me to stop foreclosure until house could be sold.  They saved me from financial ruin!

Common Questions From Gainesville Clients

What if I was injured while attending UF?

If you’re a University of Florida student and suffer an injury — whether in a car crash, at a campus-adjacent business, or in student housing — you can still file a personal injury claim in Gainesville. Your status as a student doesn’t change your rights under Florida law. Claims are handled in Alachua County courts just like any other case, and you may be entitled to compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and more.

Can I still file a claim if I live out of state?

Yes. Many Gainesville personal injury cases involve out-of-state students, parents visiting campus, or tourists. If the accident happened in Alachua County, you can file your claim there regardless of your residence. Your attorney can handle much of the process remotely, so you don’t necessarily have to return to Gainesville for every step.

What if the driver didn’t have insurance?

If you’re injured by an uninsured driver in Gainesville, you may still have options for recovery. Many drivers carry uninsured/underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) coverage, which can step in to cover expenses. If you don’t have UM coverage, your lawyer may investigate other responsible parties, such as employers, landlords, or businesses connected to the accident.

How long does it take to resolve a personal injury case in Gainesville?

Timelines vary. Some cases settle in a few months if liability is clear and medical treatment is complete. Others may take a year or more, especially if litigation is required in Alachua County courts. Factors include the severity of your injuries, how long it takes to reach maximum medical improvement, and whether the insurance company cooperates.
